Susan Hinrichs commented on TS-3136:
------------------------------------
TS-3624 is the bug Igor filed suggesting that we autogenerate DH parameters
periodically. Don't think we want to do that for 6.0 at this point.
The way it currently stands, unless you specify a dhparams file, no dhparams is
registered, so the DHE ciphers won't be negotiated (which explains why my
measurements had no DHE ciphers). At one point in 5.2/5.3 we registered a 2048
bit DH param from RFC 5114, but that messed things up for [~briang] so the
change was backed out and the param is only set if the user specifies it via a
file.
In my opinion for 6.0, we should either:
* Remove DHE from the list of default ciphers
* Re-introduce an auto-generated DH param so the DHE ciphers might get
negotiated.
