title: How to configure a TLS 1.2 Protocol in WebSphere 7.0.0.45 with Strong Cipher Suites?
body: <p>I need to Configure TLSv1.2 in <strong>WebSphere 7.0.0.45 (Java 1.6 SR 16 FP60)</strong>. So I configured the Dynamic outbound configuration in WAS and Configured the SSL Configuration by following the steps in the links</p>

  <p>And I added the Custom property in Global Security and JVM Custom property </p>
  
  <p><strong>com.ibm.websphere.ssl.include.ECCiphers = true</strong></p>
  
  <p>After configuration I am able to Establish the connection with TLSv1.2 for </p>
  
  <p><a href="https://fancyssl.hboeck.de/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://fancyssl.hboeck.de/</a> which only support TLSv1.2.</p>
  
  <p>But I can't establish a connection for strong Cipher suite sites like</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 (0x003C)
    TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (0x009C)
    TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 (0x009D)
    TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256 (0xC027)
    TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384 (0xC028)
    TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (0xC02F)
    TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 (0xC030)</p>

  <p>It's throwing an  </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Fatal Error : Handshake Failure in ClientHello</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I tried downloading the Unrestricted IBM Java policy files too. Still no luck</p>
  
  <p>Please suggest me some best practice to configure TLSv1.2 in WAS7.0 and configure the Strong Cipher Suites to resolve the issue.</p>
