cipherStrength
Module: CME-MIB
OID (symbolic): CME-MIB::cipherStrength
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.51.2.4.3.5.15
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: Strength level of the NIST signing algorithm for certificate authority. None(0) indicates no signing algorithm has been set. When writing a new value to this object, a result of No Error is returned if the value is valid. However, the new algorithm will be used to create an authority certificate asynchronously. This process may take up to 1 minute to complete. So results for subsequent queries to the object's value may also be delayed while the new certificate is being generated.
What is cipherStrength?
This read-write enumerated object sets the strength level of the NIST signing algorithm used for the certificate authority, with none(0) meaning no algorithm is set, and the MIB notes that applying a new value asynchronously regenerates the authority certificate over up to a minute. An administrator changes this to upgrade the CA's signing algorithm strength, understanding that a successful set doesn't mean the new certificate exists yet. For example, an admin sets this to rsa2048SHA256(2) and waits about a minute before verifying the certificate authority actually issued certificates with the stronger algorithm.
