      Description

        A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
        Lots of Webservers have SSL Certificates with AES 128 and Diffie Hellmann Keys with more than 2048 Bits. When i try to connect to one of these servers with Java i became an Error that says:"Prime size must be multiple of 64, and can only range from 512 to 2048 (inclusive)". To be more dynamic for the future please remove the maximum prime size and make it unlimited.

        JUSTIFICATION :
        To open a secure connection to an webserver via https its necessary to use SSL Certificates with DH-Keys which has an prime size bigger than 2048.

        EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
        EXPECTED -
        Unlimited maximum prime size.
        ACTUAL -
        The prime size has an maximum of 2048.
