N-central 2022.5: updated cipher list

N-central updated its cipher list in the 2022.5 release and removed support for older ciphers.

The change primarily affects third-party applications, including Report Manager, running on Windows Server 2012 R2 and earlier operating systems as the host operating system no longer meet the cipher requirements for communicating with N-central 2022.5 and later.

The cipher change does not generally affect third-party applications running on Windows 2016 and later where the host operating system supports the below cyphers.

For further information, please refer to the article: N-central no longer communicates with external application server since upgrade to 2022.5
