Need for a parameter to specify cipher suite
I have been getting tls cipher issue when using the goeapi. For some dated Arista EOS (Software image version: 4.26.6M), there are only these https cipher suite available. TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA
However, becuase these suites are not supported by golang - we cannot resolve the tls issue unless we specify the cipher suite. I believe the cipher is dependent on golang, and the are not included in the golang cipher suites because they are vulnerable security-wise.
If you think this is needed, we are willing to fix this issue and merge.
(After upgrading the EOS to 4.32.XM, cipher suites are updated and this library works fine.)
This issue on tls has been mentioned on arista community as well. https://arista.my.site.com/AristaCommunity/s/article/Python-3-10-and-SSLV3-ALERT-HANDSHAKE-FAILURE-error
