Vijay commented on CASSANDRA-3278:
----------------------------------

George,

Thanks for the patch,

The problem with the cached is that we need to restart the whole cluster when 
we change the KS/TS, instead we will have the flexibility if the new 
connections will just pick it up. We persist the connections untill disconnect 
hence the performance shouldn't be a concern. Also there can be variety of ssl 
client (example fat clients) which may have different sets of supported suits 
(caching one might not help).

1) cassandra-3278-nocache isn't a patch by itself (Can you rebase it?)
2) in the non cached one, If we can log a info on the filtered suit it will be 
great,

Just a side note... I would use Sets.intersection to reduce the amount of code 
:)

>          Components: Core
>    Affects Versions: 0.8.0
>         Environment: OpenJDK on debian squeeze
>            Reporter: George
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: 0.8.8, 1.0.0

> The socket creation (server or otherwise) in SSLFactory.java calls 
> [setEnabledCipherSuites|http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/net/ssl/SSLServerSocket.html#setEnabledCipherSuites(java.lang.String\[\])]
>  with the values specified in EncryptionOptions.java:
> {code}
> public String[] cipherSuites = {
>     "TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA", 
>     "TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA"
> };
> {code}
> The call to 
> [setEnabledCipherSuites|http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/net/ssl/SSLServerSocket.html#setEnabledCipherSuites(java.lang.String\[\])]
>  fails on systems that don't have [Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) 
> Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files 
> 6|http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jce-6-download-429243.html]
>  because AES256 is not supported.
> To avoid installing the unlimited strength policy file the code in 
> SSLFactory.java should call 
> [getSupportedCipherSuites|http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/net/ssl/SSLServerSocket.html#getSupportedCipherSuites()]
>  to find out which of the suites specified are supported.
> Thanks,
