SSL_CIPHER_LIST - UAG configuration Option

SSL_CIPHER_LIST - UAG configuration Option

Description

The SSL_CIPHER_LIST option specifies the SSL/TLS cipher suites acceptable for use by the SSL/TLS protocol.

The SSL/TLS protocol uses the cipher suites to specify which encryption and message authentication (or message digest) algorithms to use.
