sslAES256

This parameter specifies whether the emulator includes or excludes AES 256-bit cipher suites when negotiating a secure connection to a host. During the negotiation, the emulator tries to use the highest level of encryption that is supported on the host, but if the host supports 256-bit encryption and the necessary policy files are not installed on the client, the connection fails. Set this parameter to false to exclude AES 256-bit from the list of cipher suites available during the SSL/TLS negotiation. AES 256-bit cipher suites are included in the SSL/TLS negotiation if this parameter is set to true or if this parameter is not used.

If the host supports 256-bit AES encryption and a 256-bit cipher suite is included on the available list on the client, you must download the Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files. If you choose not to install the policy files, you can exclude AES 256-bit from the client list of cipher suites using this parameter.
