This is a text-only version of the following page on https://raymii.org: --- Title : haproxy: set specific ssl ciphers Author : Remy van Elst Date : 12-12-2013 URL : https://raymii.org/s/snippets/haproxy_set_specific_ssl_ciphers.html Format : Markdown/HTML --- This snippet shows you how to set specific ciphers for haproxy when using an ssl frontend. This can be used for example to allow or disallow specific SSL ciphers. This was tested on haproxy 1.5.

The following config is required in a `frontend` section: frontend example-frontend reqadd X-Forwarded-Proto:\ https rspadd Strict-Transport-Security:\ max-age=31536000;\ includeSubDomains option forwardfor except 127.0.0.1 maxconn 100 bind 10.20.30.40:443 ssl crt /etc/ssl/certs/example.pem ciphers ECDHE+aRSA+AES256+GCM+SHA384:ECDHE+aRSA+AES128+GCM+SHA256:ECDHE+aRSA+AES256+SHA384:ECDHE+aRSA+AES128+SHA256:ECDHE+aRSA+RC4+SHA:ECDHE+aRSA+AES256+SHA:ECDHE+aRSA+AES128+SHA:AES256+GCM+SHA384:AES128+GCM+SHA256:AES128+SHA256:AES256+SHA256:DHE+aRSA+AES128+SHA:RC4+SHA:HIGH:!aNULL:!eNULL:!LOW:!3DES:!MD5:!EXP:!PSK:!SRP:!DSS default_backend example_backend This is the important bit: bind 10.20.30.40:443 ssl crt /etc/ssl/certs/example.pem ciphers ECDHE+aRSA+AES256+GCM+SHA384:ECDHE+aRSA+AES128+GCM+SHA256:ECDHE+aRSA+AES256+SHA384:ECDHE+aRSA+AES128+SHA256:ECDHE+aRSA+RC4+SHA:ECDHE+aRSA+AES256+SHA:ECDHE+aRSA+AES128+SHA:AES256+GCM+SHA384:AES128+GCM+SHA256:AES128+SHA256:AES256+SHA256:DHE+aRSA+AES128+SHA:RC4+SHA:HIGH:!aNULL:!eNULL:!LOW:!3DES:!MD5:!EXP:!PSK:!SRP:!DSS This is an specific cipher suite for use with TLS 1.2 with RC4 as fallback.
