If I didn't misunderstand, It will try to negotiate strongest possible
cipher suite. e.g. If I dont use SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list() in both the
server and the client it choses AES-256. But It depends on your build
configuration. e.g. If you choose to turn off AES then I think it will
choose some other cipher suite. But as Richard said you can make cipher
of your choice defualt cipher by using SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list().
