You can quickly test the effects using "openssl s_server" and and this
excellent tool (perl script):
   https://labs.portcullis.co.uk/tools/ssl-cipher-suite-enum/

The above cipher suite will result in a server which supports all SSL/TLS
protocol versions available, *but* only TLSv1.2 will ever work because
none of the other versions will have a cipher to select. I suspect this
will
not work well with contemporary browsers.
