+    Sets the cryptographic cipher suite for this configuration to \a ciphers,
+    which is a colon-separated list of cipher suite names. The ciphers are listed
+    in order of preference, starting with the most preferred cipher. For example:
+
+    \snippet code/src_network_ssl_qsslconfiguration.cpp 1
+
+    Each cipher name in \a ciphers must be the name of a cipher in the
+    list returned by supportedCiphers().  Restricting the cipher suite
+    must be done before the handshake phase, where the session cipher
+    is chosen.
