Instructions

Security Vulnerability scans detected a vulnerability with the description "TLS/SSL Server Supports The Use of Static Key Ciphers. The server is configured to support ciphers known as static key ciphers. These ciphers do not support "Forward Secrecy." In the new specification for HTTP/2, these ciphers have been blacklisted."

Note: This script is ONLY relevant for XMS codes 6.4 or newer. Open a service request (SR) with XtremIO support to address this issue if the "tech" password is unknown. 

Use the disable_static_ciphers-v3.0.0-s4.0.0.py script attached to disable the blacklisted ciphers listed below:
