What do you mean, where JSSE "gets its ciphers"?

I should think my meaning should be self-explanatory:

Does JSSE on a Midrange JRE implement its ciphers internally, as with any normal JRE? Or does it somehow defer the implentation to the OS's cipher support?

The reason being that, to rephrase what I said, I have reason to believe that the problem one of our customers experienced was the result of the JRE claiming (to a Tomcat server it was running) that it could support ECDHE ciphers it couldn't actually implement when asked (by a browser) to do so.

Whether there's a way to remedy this within an OS release is irrelevant; the immediate problem was solved by adding a "ciphers" clause to the relevant connection tag in the Tomcat server's server.xml file.
