This release updates the BestPractices cipher set as shown in the section below and this change is effective immediately after upgrade to this release. This change is being made to improve LoadMaster security and conform to the latest industry best practices. For more information on the cipher suites being removed from the set, please see the section Best Practices Cipher Set Updated, below.
Note: If you depend on any of the cipher sets being removed from the
BestPractices set, then before you upgrade you must create a custom
cipher set that contains these ciphers and assign this new custom cipher to the Virtual
Services that are currently using the BestPractices cipher set. If you do not,
any clients that depend on these ciphers being available will no longer be able to
connect. After this is done, you can upgrade to LMOS 7.2.48.3 and your services will
continue to use the old ciphers.
It is recommended, however, that you migrate your services as soon as possible to use the new BestPractices cipher set provided with LMOS 7.2.48.3.
