The format of the string is described +in L. The list of ciphers is inherited by all +B objects created from B. + +SSL_set_cipher_list() sets the list of ciphers only for B. + +=head1 NOTES + +The control string B should be universally usable and not depend +on details of the library configuration (ciphers compiled in). Thus no +syntax checking takes place. Items that are not recognized, because the +corresponding ciphers are not compiled in or because they are mistyped, +are simply ignored. Failure is only flagged if no ciphers could be collected +at all. + +It should be noted, that inclusion of a cipher to be used into the list is +a necessary condition. On the client side, the inclusion into the list is +also sufficient unless the security level excludes it. On the server side, +additional restrictions apply. All ciphers have additional requirements. +ADH ciphers don't need a certificate, but DH-parameters must have been set. +All other ciphers need a corresponding certificate and key. + +A RSA cipher can only be chosen, when a RSA certificate is available. +RSA ciphers using DHE need a certificate and key and additional DH-parameters +(see L). + +A DSA cipher can only be chosen, when a DSA certificate is available. +DSA ciphers always use DH key exchange and therefore need DH-parameters +(see L). + +When these conditions are not met for any cipher in the list (e.g. a +client only supports export RSA ciphers with an asymmetric key length +of 512 bits and the server is not configured to use temporary RSA +keys), the "no shared cipher" (SSL_R_NO_SHARED_CIPHER) error is generated +and the handshake will fail. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list() and SSL_set_cipher_list() return 1 if any cipher +could be selected and 0 on complete failure. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L, L, +L, +L, +L + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +Copyright 2000-2016 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
