∟SslSocketTest.java - Default SSL Socket Factory Test

This section provides a tutorial example on how to write a simple program to test the SSLSocketFactory class and the SSLServerSocketFactory class.

The following sample program shows you how to create default SSL socket factories:

public class SslSocketTest {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      PrintStream out = System.out;
      out.println("\nDefault SSL socket factory:");
      try {
         // Generating the default SSLServerSocketFactory
         SSLServerSocketFactory ssf = (SSLServerSocketFactory)
            SSLServerSocketFactory.getDefault();
         System.out.println("\nSSLServerSocketFactory class: "
            +ssf.getClass());
         String[] dcsList = ssf.getDefaultCipherSuites();
         out.println("   Default cipher suites:");
         for (int i=0; i<dcsList.length; i++) {
            out.println("      "+dcsList[i]);
         }

         // Genearting SSLServerSocket
         SSLServerSocket ss
            = (SSLServerSocket) ssf.createServerSocket();
         System.out.println("\nSSLServerSocket class: "
            +ss.getClass());
         System.out.println("   String: "+ss.toString());

         // Generating the default SSLSocketFactory
         SSLSocketFactory sf = 
            (SSLSocketFactory) SSLSocketFactory.getDefault();
         out.println("\nSSLSocketFactory class: "
            +sf.getClass());
         dcsList = sf.getDefaultCipherSuites();
         out.println("   Default cipher suites:");
         for (int i=0; i<dcsList.length; i++) {
            out.println("      "+dcsList[i]);
         }

         // Genearting SSLSocket
         SSLSocket s
            = (SSLSocket) sf.createSocket();
         System.out.println("\nSSLSocket class: "+s.getClass());
         System.out.println("   String: "+s.toString());
      } catch (Exception e) {
         System.err.println(e.toString());
      }
   }
}

If you run this program with JDK 1.5.0, you will get:

Default SSL socket factory:

SSLServerSocketFactory class: 
   class com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.SSLServerSocketFactoryImpl
   Default cipher suites:
      SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_MD5
      SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA
      TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
      TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
      TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
      SSL_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA
      SSL_DHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA
      SSL_DHE_DSS_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA
      SSL_RSA_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA
      SSL_DHE_RSA_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA
      SSL_DHE_DSS_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA
      SSL_RSA_EXPORT_WITH_RC4_40_MD5
      SSL_RSA_EXPORT_WITH_DES40_CBC_SHA
      SSL_DHE_RSA_EXPORT_WITH_DES40_CBC_SHA
      SSL_DHE_DSS_EXPORT_WITH_DES40_CBC_SHA

SSLServerSocket class: 
   class com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.SSLServerSocketImpl
   String: [SSL: ServerSocket[unbound]]

SSLSocketFactory class: 
   class com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.SSLSocketFactoryImpl
   Default cipher suites:
      SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_MD5
      SSL_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA
      TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
      TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
      TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
      SSL_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA
      SSL_DHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA
      SSL_DHE_DSS_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA
      SSL_RSA_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA
      SSL_DHE_RSA_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA
      SSL_DHE_DSS_WITH_DES_CBC_SHA
      SSL_RSA_EXPORT_WITH_RC4_40_MD5
      SSL_RSA_EXPORT_WITH_DES40_CBC_SHA
      SSL_DHE_RSA_EXPORT_WITH_DES40_CBC_SHA
      SSL_DHE_DSS_EXPORT_WITH_DES40_CBC_SHA

SSLSocket class: class com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.SSLSocketImpl
   String: a3bcc1[SSL_NULL_WITH_NULL_NULL: Socket[unconnected]]

Note that JSSE does support a number of cipher suites for the SSL record protocol.
