A company is deploying a BIG-IP to manage traffic for a new application. The application requires TLS 1.2 and supports a specific set of cipher suites. The administrator needs to configure the HTTPS profile to match the application's requirements. What is the correct way to configure the cipher settings in the HTTPS profile?

Use the 'DEFAULT' cipher list and enable TLS 1.2.

Specify the exact cipher suites in the 'Ciphers' field, separated by colons, and enable TLS 1.2.

Use the 'HIGH' cipher list and enable TLS 1.2.

Enable TLS 1.2 and leave the 'Ciphers' field empty.

A BIG-IP administrator has applied a new HTTPS profile to a virtual server. After the change, clients are reporting that they receive a certificate warning in their browsers. The administrator has verified that the correct certificate is installed and configured in the profile. What is the most likely cause of the certificate warning?

The HTTPS profile is not applied to the correct virtual server.

The cipher suite configured in the profile is not supported by the client's browser.

The certificate is not trusted by the client's browser because it was not signed by a public CA.

The certificate's private key does not match the public key in the certificate.
