SSL_CIPHER_SUITES - UFTP configuration option

Description

The SSL_CIPHER_SUITES option specifies one or more SSL/TLS 1.3 specific cipher suites that UFTP would like to use to secure the control and data sessions for an FTPS transfer.

This option is used only when the transfer protocol is FTPS.

tip

This option is specific to TLS 1.3. To configure ciphers for TLS 1.2 and earlier, see the ssl_cipher_list option.
