== Full backward compatibility ==
Three configurations are recommended. Pick the right configuration depending on your audience. If you do not need backward compatibility, and are building a service for modern clients only (post FF27), then use the Modern configuration. Otherwise, prefer the Intermediate configuration. Use the Old backward compatible configuration only if your service will be accessed by very old clients, such as Windows XP IE6, or ancient libraries & bots.


The default ciphersuite that works with all clients back to Windows XP/IE6 is:

|-

</td>

For services that don't need backward compatibility, the parameters below provide a higher level of security. This configuration is compatible with Firefox 27, Chrome 22, IE 11, Opera 14 and Safari 7.

This is the old ciphersuite that works with all clients back to Windows XP/IE6. It should be used as a last resort only.

== Intermediate compatibility ==
For services that don't need compatibility with legacy clients (mostly WinXP), but still need to support a wide range of clients, this configuration is recommended. It is is compatible with Firefox 1, Chrome 1, IE 7, Opera 5 and Safari 1.
