Basic Settings

For each FTP site the following settings are configured:

Deprecated ciphers include: 3des-cbc and

automatically uses the following ciphers 3des-ctr, aes128-ctr, aes192-ctr, aes256-ctr. If your  SSH server uses deprecated ciphers, such as 3des-cbc and blowfish-cbc, enter the list of all the ciphers you want to use. The order that you enter the ciphers indicates the order of preference. This means PhixFlow will use the first cipher that is listed and is available.

  • 3des-ctr
  • aes128-ctr

  • aes256-ctr
  • and the deprecated ciphers
    • 3des-cbc
