Description

The article contains information about the changes to the add ssl cipher and bind ssl cipher command from NetScaler software release 10 build 69.4.

The following table lists the changes to add ssl cipher and bind ssl cipher commands:

Command

NetScaler Software Release 9.3

From NetScaler Software Release 10

add ssl cipher

add ssl cipher <cipherGroupName> <cipherAliasName/cipherName/cipherGroupName>

add ssl cipher <cipherGroupName>

bind ssl cipher

bind ssl cipher (<vServerName>@ | <serviceName>@ | <serviceGroupName>@)
[-vServer | -service] <cipherOperation>
<cipherAliasName/cipherName/cipherGroupName>

bind ssl cipher <cipherGroupName> -cipherName <string>

bind ssl vserver <vServerName> -cipherName <string>

add ssl cipher Command

In NetScaler software release 9.3, the add ssl cipher command completes two operations:

  • Creates a user-defined cipher group
  • Adds ciphers to this group

    However, in NetScaler software release 10, you must type two separate commands for the same action:

    • Run the following command to create an user-defined group:
      add ssl cipher <cipherGroupName>

    • Run the following command to bind ciphers to a group:
      bind ssl cipher <cipherGroupName> -cipherName <string>

      bind ssl cipher Command

      In NetScaler software release 9.3, to bind an SSL cipher to a virtual server or service, use the following command:
      bind ssl cipher (<vServerName>@ | <serviceName>@ | <serviceGroupName>@) [-vServer | -service] <cipherOperation> (<cipherAliasName | cipherName | cipherGroupName>)

      Note: This command changes the default cipher group that is bound to the virtual server.

      However, in NetScaler software release 10, run the following command to add the new cipher or cipher group to the existing list:
      bind ssl vserver <vServerName> -cipherName <string>
