SSL crypto objects being converted to TLS crypto obects

  • 1.  SSL crypto objects being converted to TLS crypto obects

    Posted Thu May 11, 2023 09:07 AM

    Hi,
    V10 firmware now uses TLS crypto objects and not SSL crypto objects as in V2018 and earlier.
    I'm aware that taking an export of the SSL objects from V2018 and importing to V10, that there
    is an automatic conversion to TLS objects.
    But what I want to know:
    - if I upgrade the firmware from V2018 to V10 on a device, does the firmware upgrade process
      take care of this conversion on the existing objects on that device?
    - if not, what issues occur, and how would they resolved?
    Many thanks,
    Steve

    Hi Steve,
    The SSL to TLS change is only really evident on the DataPower GUI.
    v2018 SSL Client/Server Profiles will now be listed under TLS Client/Server Profiles.

    The "export.xml" of a v10 TLS Client/Server Profile will still have the "SSL Client/Server Profile" tags and not TLS Client/Server Profile.

    I hope this makes sense.
