NOTE: The default cipher suites list above includes TLSv1.3 ciphers and ciphers
that require the _Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength
Jurisdiction Policy Files_ for 256-bit AES encryption. If TLSv1.3 is not
available, the TLSv1.3 ciphers `TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384` and
`TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256` are not included in the default list. If 256-bit AES is
unavailable, ciphers with `AES_256` in their names are not included in the
default list. Finally, AES GCM has known performance issues in Java versions
prior to 11 and is included in the default list only when using Java 11 or above.

tag::ssl-verification-mode-values[]
Controls the verification of certificates.
+
Valid values are:

 * `full`, which verifies that the provided certificate is signed by a trusted
authority (CA) and also verifies that the server's hostname (or IP address)
matches the names identified within the certificate.
 * `certificate`, which verifies that the provided certificate is signed by a
trusted authority (CA), but does not perform any hostname verification.
 * `none`, which performs _no verification_ of the server's certificate. This
mode disables many of the security benefits of SSL/TLS and should only be used
after very careful consideration. It is primarily intended as a temporary
diagnostic mechanism when attempting to resolve TLS errors; its use on
production clusters is strongly discouraged.
+
The default value is `full`.
