Chapter 17 IBM z/OS and IBM i : SSL Implementation on IBM EBCDIC Systems : tibemsSSLParams_System_SetCiphers

tibemsSSLParams_System_SetCiphers
Function
Purpose
Set the cipher suites for IBM System SSL connections.
C Declaration
tibems_status tibemsSSLParams_System_SetCiphers(
    tibemsSSLParams SSLParams,
    const char* ciphers );
COBOL Call
CALL "tibemsSSLParams_System_SetCiphers"
     USING BY VALUE SSLParams,
           BY REFERENCE ciphers,
           RETURNING tibems-status
END-CALL.
 
SSLParams has usage pointer.
Parameters
 
Note that on IBM i the system values QSSLCSL, QSSLCSLCTL, and QSSLPCL control the ciphers and protocols that are supported.
Remarks
This parameter is connection-specific and can be specified for each connection. On z/OS, only the indicated CIPHERS are allowed in FIPS mode.
Table 17 below lists ciphers which have been tested. However, many factors can affect the list of ciphers which work on a given site, so your list may be larger or smaller than this one.
 
On both z/OS and IBM i the ciphers may be specified as a string of two-character codes with no spaces or other delimiters. For example "2F0535".
On z/OS the ciphers may also be specified as a string of four-character codes with no spaces or other delimiters. For example "C012003D003C".
On IBM i the ciphers may alternately be specified as a string of comma-delimited string values containing no spaces. For example, "TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA,TLS_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA,TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA".
