John O'Hara commented on QPID-6:
--------------------------------

Actually, SSL contains a lot of cipher suites.

We should make the server warn when a weak cipther suite is selected by a 
client.
We should also make the server negotiate down a list from strongest to weakest.

Some regions of the world still bar strong crypto, so this should be a warning 
in the server log, not an error.



> Need to make SSL options configurable

> In both the client and broker, the SSL support lacks the ability to configure 
> basically anything. 
> We need to be able to allow the user/administration to configure the 
> certificate, keystore and so on. 
> On the broker, look at org.amqp.blaze.server.protocol.AMQPFastProtocolHandler 
> line 97. From there trace into the org.amqp.blaze.ssl.BogusSSLContextFactory 
> which is the class that hardcodes stuff in a way that is very useful for a 
> dev environment! 
> Basically the task in this jira is to make this whole area fully 
> configurable.
