9.6. Setting the Minimum TLS Encryption Protocol Version

By default, Directory Server sets sslVersionMin parameter automatically based on the system-wide crypto policy. The following table provides an overview of the TLS version in sslVersionMin Directory Server uses based on the system-wide crypto policy profile:

Table 9.2. Overview of System-wide Crypto Policy Profiles and the Minimum TLS Version They Define

Profile Minimum TLS Version
DEFAULT TLS 1.2
FUTURE TLS 1.2
FIPS TLS 1.2
LEGACY TLS 1.0
For further details about system-wide crypto policy, how to change the profile, and opting-out services of system-wide crypto policies, see the Using system-wide cryptographic policies section in the RHEL 8 Security Hardening guide.
Alternatively, you can manually set sslVersionMin to higher value than the one defined in the crypto policy profile:
# dsconf -D "cn=Directory Manager" ldap://server.example.com security set --tls-protocol-min="TLS1.3"
