SaaS and Managed Synth HTTP Monitor fails on obsolete security - SSL communication error

[imoskovko1]

Hello

Can one suggest regarding SaaS & Manager HTTP synthetic monitor

In our test env to use RUM/NAM traffic analysis we had to downgrade MS IIS security settings to

Connection - obsolete connection settings

The connection to this site uses TLS 1.2 (a strong protocol), RSA (an obsolete key exchange), and AES_256_GCM (a strong cipher).

In other words, we disabled all Diffie-Hellman key-echange as it was discussed at https://answers.dynatrace.com/spaces/160/open-q-a_...

But now Saas and Managed HTTP Synthetic monitor fails on obsolete security connection settings https protocol 😞 - with "SSL communication error".

How to ask HTTP Synthetic monitor to accept MS IIS obsolated security settings-

HTTP v1.1 + TLS v1.2 with all DH disabled (TLS 1.2 RSA AES_256_GCM) ?

Regards,

Igor

Hi Igor, please create a support ticket at https://www.dynatrace.com/support/contact-support...

There have been some important updates to the ciphers and security settings supported by HTTP monitors in ActiveGate v159 but it needs to be verified if this particular situation is covered.
