Server SSL Profile
Can someone explain this in the server ssl profile properties. I thought that the BIG-IP was server cipher preference. So between the BIG-IP and server the BIG-IP is the client. But from the statement below this is saying the opposite. Please explain.
Cipher server preference: When the BIG-IP system chooses a cipher, this option uses the server's preferences instead of the client preferences. When this option is not set, the SSL server always follows the clients preferences. When this option is set, the SSLv3/TLSv1 server chooses by using its own preferences. For SSLv2, the server sends its list of preferences to the client, and the client always chooses the cipher.
