Right about that.<br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small;color:rgb(51,51,153)">However, what is intriguing is the answer Maxim gave me on the second part of my proposal: the default activation of <a href="http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_ssl_module.html#ssl_prefer_server_ciphers">ssl_prefer_server_ciphers</a>.<br>
<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small;color:rgb(51,51,153)">He saif that this option put to on made sense with a custome list but not with the default one.<br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small;color:rgb(51,51,153)">
I confirm that the results of my tests changed. It was no because of the ciphers list, but it was due to that other change.<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small;color:rgb(51,51,153)">Thus, the ciphers used by the emulated clients of the test changed following the activation of that option, allowing me to pass the 'Forward Secrecy' part of the test, resulting in an upgrade of my score from A- to A.<br>
<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small;color:rgb(51,51,153)">I jsut checked it again, removing my buggy ciphers list and (de)activating de rprefer' option.<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small;color:rgb(51,51,153)">
