Symptômes
The web browsers (Chrome, New Edge, or Firefox) refused to open the WebTools using HTTPS.
The error message contains "Cipher Mismatch" or "No Matching Ciphers."

The switch is running in FOS 8.1 or 8.2 firmware.
The error message contains "Cipher Mismatch" or "No Matching Ciphers."

The switch is running in FOS 8.1 or 8.2 firmware.
Cause
The switch HTTPS cipher setting only allows AES256-SHA256 and AES128-SHA256 for TLS 1.2 (the "default_generic" or "default_strong templates" of FOS 8.1 or 8.2).
The Wireshark dump shows that the client does not accept AES256-SHA256 (0x3d) or AES128-SHA256 (0x3c), hence the TLS handshake fails.

Résolution
Modify the switch HTTPS cipher setting to cover the client.
Example:
In this example, the current HTTPS cipher setting is "!ECDH:!DH:HIGH:-MD5:!CAMELLIA:!SRP:!PSK:!AESGCM:!SSLv3"
To enable AES256-GCM-SHA384 (0x9d) and AES128-GCM-SHA256 (0x9c), remove "!AESGCM" from the setting with the command:
Example:
In this example, the current HTTPS cipher setting is "!ECDH:!DH:HIGH:-MD5:!CAMELLIA:!SRP:!PSK:!AESGCM:!SSLv3"
To enable AES256-GCM-SHA384 (0x9d) and AES128-GCM-SHA256 (0x9c), remove "!AESGCM" from the setting with the command:
seccryptocfg --replace -type https -cipher '!ECDH:!DH:HIGH:-MD5:!CAMELLIA:!SRP:!PSK:!SSLv3'

Map OpenSSL cipher names (displayed in the OpenSSL command) with IANA cipher names (displayed in Wireshark dump) using the Mozilla document, Security/Cipher Suites - MozillaWiki
