--------------------------------------
Hi [~wheat9],
I also want to mention that HttpFs is war project that can utilize
ssl-server.xml for tomcat. However, these hadoop common services (namenode,
seocndary namenode, qjm, yarn rm) are jar modules and are based on embedded
jetty implementation (documentation maintained at link
[LikeJettyXml|http://git.eclipse.org/c/jetty/org.eclipse.jetty.project.git/tree/examples/embedded/src/main/java/org/eclipse/jetty/embedded/LikeJettyXml.java]
). Currently, programmatic setting is the only option I am aware of and also
also I am just leveraging the current implementation, while still utilizing
current ssl-server.xml config file to maintain the configuration based
flexibility. I am looking for suggestions if there is an alternate approach. I
will continue to extend the functionality to include CipherSuites as well.

> Currently Embeded jetty Server used across all hadoop services is configured
> through ssl-server.xml file from their respective configuration section.
> However, the SSL/TLS protocol being used for this jetty servers can be
> downgraded to weak cipher suites. This code changes aims to add following
> functionality:
> 1) Add logic in hadoop common (HttpServer2.java and associated interfaces) to
> spawn jetty servers with ability to exclude weak cipher suites. I propose we
> make this though ssl-server.xml and hence each service can choose to disable
> specific ciphers.
> 2) Modify DFSUtil.java used by HDFS code to supply new parameter
> ssl.server.exclude.cipher.list for hadoop-common code, so it can exclude the
> ciphers supplied through this key.
