When an SSL connection is established, the client (Web browser) and the Web server negotiate the cipher to use for the connection. The Web server has an ordered list of ciphers, and the first cipher in the list that is supported by the client is selected.
If you specify V3 or TLS ciphers, and you do not specify SSL V2 ciphers, then SSL V2 support is disabled. If you specify SSL V2 ciphers, and do not specify SSL V3 or TLS ciphers, then SSL V3 and TLS support is disabled.
