SSL_CTX_SET_SSL_VERSION(3ossl) OpenSSL SSL_CTX_SET_SSL_VERSION(3ossl) NAME SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version, SSL_CTX_get_ssl_method, SSL_set_ssl_method, SSL_get_ssl_method - choose a new TLS/SSL method SYNOPSIS #include <openssl/ssl.h> int SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version(SSL_CTX *ctx, const SSL_METHOD *method); const SSL_METHOD *SSL_CTX_get_ssl_method(const SSL_CTX *ctx); int SSL_set_ssl_method(SSL *s, const SSL_METHOD *method); const SSL_METHOD *SSL_get_ssl_method(const SSL *ssl); DESCRIPTION SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version() sets a new default TLS/SSL method for SSL objects newly created from this ctx. Most of the configuration attached to the SSL_CTX object is retained, with the exception of the configured TLS ciphers, which are reset to the default values. SSL objects already created from this SSL_CTX with SSL_new(3) are not affected, except when SSL_clear(3) is being called, as described below. SSL_CTX_get_ssl_method() returns the SSL_METHOD which was used to construct the SSL_CTX. SSL_set_ssl_method() sets a new TLS/SSL method for a particular ssl object. It may be reset, when SSL_clear() is called. SSL_get_ssl_method() returns a pointer to the TLS/SSL method set in ssl. NOTES The available method choices are described in SSL_CTX_new(3). When SSL_clear(3) is called and no session is connected to an SSL object, the method of the SSL object is reset to the method currently set in the corresponding SSL_CTX object. SSL_CTX_set_version() has unusual semantics and no clear use case; it would usually be preferable to create a new SSL_CTX object than to try to reuse an existing one in this fashion. Its usage is considered deprecated. RETURN VALUES The following return values can occur for SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version() and SSL_set_ssl_method(): 0 The new choice failed, check the error stack to find out the reason. 1 The operation succeeded. SSL_CTX_get_ssl_method() and SSL_get_ssl_method() always return non- NULL pointers. SEE ALSO SSL_CTX_new(3), SSL_new(3), SSL_clear(3), ssl(7), Licensed under the Apache License 2.0 (the "License").
