Usage Information
• You can select one or more ciphers from the list.
• The default list of supported ciphers is same irrespective of whether FIPS mode is enabled or disabled.
• Client-supported cipher list gets preference over the server-supported cipher list in selecting the cipher for
the SSH session.
• When the cipher (-c) option is used with the SSH CLI, it overrides the configured or default cipher list.
• When FIPS is enabled or disabled, the client ciphers get default configuration.
