Mike,
I have Chrome 47 too and I can access other sites using 1.2 no problem. The
same goes for the IE versions and Firefox versions I am using to test (on
Win 7 & 10), I can open other sites using 1.2 but not my own.
I'm using a Comodo cert which I just changed to 4096 bit. In the ssslabs
report there is a warning about 'Chain issues: Contains anchor', so I plan
on removing a root cert tonight to get rid of this message and hopefully it
might help.
Does your iSeries have the newer ECDHE cipher suites?
Thanks,
David

Don't look server side. Problem is more likely in the browser. Early
versions of IE did not enable TLS 1.1 and 1.2 by default. You have to turn
them on. In some versions of IE turning on 1.1 and 1.2 and turning off 1.0
does not make a connection but turning off 1.2 and turning 1.0 back on makes
1.1 work. I am using Chrome 47 and can connect TLS 1.2 to my iSeries

Notice that IE is also dependent on the OS
Do you happen to use a Verisign certificate on your iSeries? We discovered
recently, with a lot of help from IBM, that a root certificate from verisign
was causing a problem with Client Access connecting SSL (telnet SSL worked
but the rest of Client Access would not work SSL). When we put a newer root
certificate on it broke older versions of Client Access telnet SSL. Working
now to get those systems current.

Subject: TLS 1.2 on 7.1 - cipher suite mismatch issues
Hi,
I have TLS 1.2 enabled for my HTTP server but it's only working for certain
browsers, IE 11 & Edge and some older browser versions. In Chrome I get the
error "ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH" and Firefox gives the error
"ssl_error_protocol_version_alert" and the site doesn't load.
In my test HTTP config file I have set my cipher suite list like below which
matches the only cipher suites I have on my system (7.1, TR7) that Chrome
supports:
SSLCipherSpec TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA
SSLCipherSpec TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
SSLCipherSpec TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA
But I still can't get a connection. Using www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/ I have
checked some other sites which work fine for TLS 1.2 using the AES_128_CBC
cipher. The only difference being those sites also have the more modern
ECDHE cipher suites listed too even though they are not used for the
connection. I can't go to 7.2 with this box for a long time.
Has anyone come across this problem before on 7.1?
Thanks,
David
