Problem
When running with the SeaLIghts Java agent, depending on the proxy and security setting, an SSL connection can be encountered when using java 7 with a version lower that 131.
This is due to TLS 1.2 not being added by default till java 7 version 131 (See https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/7u131-relnotes-3338543.html)
Solution
The solution is to upgrade java to version 131 or later which will automatically support TL1.2, if you are using an older version of Java 7 then you can add the jvm param: -Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1.1,TLSv1.2.
Add TLS v1.1 and v1.2 to the client list of default-enabled protocols
TLSv1.2 and TLSv1.1 are now enabled by default on the TLS client end-points.
This is similar behavior to what already happens in JDK 8 releases.
