  1. The COMPAT stack was completely removed in 12.0
  2. 12.0 does not include support for SSLv3 in the remaining NATIVE stack

Therefore to get SSLv3 support, you'll need to use 11.6.1 and below, and to get SSLv2 support, you'll need 11.6.0 and below. I would however implore you to NOT do this. SSLv2 and SSLv3 were removed from the box for very good reasons.
