How to set HTTPS SSL Cipher Suite Preference in Sp

I trying to set HTTPS SSL cipher suite preference according to server preference rather than auto select based on client & server supported common cipher suite with highest strength.

I like to let server choose for common between server & client having "TLS_ECDHE..." in order to support Forward Secrecy. Now I tested in "www.ssllabs.com", client browser will prefer cipher having "TLS_RSA..." rather than "TLS_ECDHE"...

I noticed java 8 support set cipher suite preference: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/security/jsse/JSSERefGuide.html#cipher_suite_preference

I assume spring boot embedded Tomcat will call Java 8 function to choose cipher

Here is what I done in spring boot application.properties file to set server support ciphers set:

server.ssl.ciphers=TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384,TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384,TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_SHA,TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_SHA,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_SHA384,TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_SHA384,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_SHA,TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_SHA,TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_SHA256,TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_SHA,TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_AES_128_SHA256,TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_SHA256,TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_AES_256_SHA,TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_SHA

Hopefully someone can guide me how to override default choose cipher behaviour.

You need to tell the connector's underlying protocol handler to use the server's cipher suite order. You can do so with an EmbeddedServletContainerCustomizer:

@Bean
public EmbeddedServletContainerCustomizer servletContainerCustomizer() {
    return (factory) -> {
        ((TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory) factory)
                .addConnectorCustomizers((connector) -> {
            ((AbstractHttp11Protocol<?>) connector.getProtocolHandler())
                    .setUseServerCipherSuitesOrder(Boolean.toString(true));
        });
    };
}
