Ciphers and Protocols for Directory Proxy Server

The ciphers and protocols that can be used by Directory Proxy Server depend on the JVM that is used. By default, Directory Proxy Server uses the default ciphers and protocols for the JVM.

You can retrieve a list of ciphers and protocols by using the dpconf command:

Enabled ciphers

The list of ciphers that are currently enabled for both the LDAP and LDAPS listeners. Because the LDAP and LDAPS listeners are synchronized, the properties are part of the global server configuration, and not the listener configuration.

Supported ciphers

The list of ciphers supported by the JVM for Directory Proxy Server.

Enabled protocols

The list of protocols that are currently enabled for both the LDAP and LDAPS listeners. Because the LDAP and LDAPS listeners are synchronized, the properties are part of the global server configuration, and not the listener configuration.

Supported protocols

The list of protocols supported by the JVM for Directory Proxy Server.
