    Description

      In our JSSE Reference Guide, we need to add a section to talk about the new jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms Security property, and how enabled ciphersuites are affected by this.

      The following can be used as part of the addition.

      Disabled:
      =========
      If a ciphersuite contains any components (e.g. RC4) on the disabled list (i.e. RC4 jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms), that ciphersuite will NOT be considered for a connection handshake.

      Enabled:
      ========
      A list of specific ciphersuites that will be considered for a connection (unless any component of that ciphersuite is also on the disabled list as per above.)

      Not Enabled:
      ============
      A list of ciphersuites that will NOT be considered for a connection.
