title: WCF TLS cipher suite
body: <p>I have a requirement to specify the cipher suite to be used for transport level security on a
  wsHttpBinding in WCF.</p>
  
  <p>I have problems finding what kind of cipher is used by default on TLS by WCF in the first place, let alone set it.</p>
  
  <p>This question is due to operation in an environment where most systems are build on Java, which apparently allows for setting the cipher programmatically.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way to see what cipher is used, and even better set it to a different one?</p>
  
  <p>Apologies for a possible mixup and misuse of security terms,</p>
  
  <p><strong>Update 1:</strong> I have identified the ciphers used in a WCF client-server interaction using <a href="http://www.wireshark.org" rel="nofollow noreferrer">WireShark</a>. The client provides a list of ciphers it supports and the server selects one of the ciphers for subsequent use. I have not yet been able to programmatically define the ciphers to be used neither on the client or server side. Please let me know your experience with this. </p>
  
  <p>Thanks,</p>
