1=pod 2 3=head1 NAME 4 5SSL_CTX_config, SSL_config - configure SSL_CTX or SSL structure 6 7=head1 SYNOPSIS 8 9 #include <openssl/ssl.h> 10 11 int SSL_CTX_config(SSL_CTX *ctx, const char *name); 12 int SSL_config(SSL *s, const char *name); 13 14=head1 DESCRIPTION 15 16The functions SSL_CTX_config() and SSL_config() configure an B<SSL_CTX> or 17B<SSL> structure using the configuration B<name>. 18 19=head1 NOTES 20 21By calling SSL_CTX_config() or SSL_config() an application can perform many 22complex tasks based on the contents of the configuration file: greatly 23simplifying application configuration code. A degree of future proofing 24can also be achieved: an application can support configuration features 25in newer versions of OpenSSL automatically. 26 27A configuration file must have been previously loaded, for example using 28CONF_modules_load_file(). See L<config(5)> for details of the configuration 29file syntax. 30 31=head1 RETURN VALUES 32 33SSL_CTX_config() and SSL_config() return 1 for success or 0 if an error 34occurred. 35 36=head1 EXAMPLE 37 38If the file "config.cnf" contains the following: 39 40 testapp = test_sect 41 42 [test_sect] 43 # list of configuration modules 44 45 ssl_conf = ssl_sect 46 47 [ssl_sect] 48 server = server_section 49 50 [server_section] 51 RSA.Certificate = server-rsa.pem 52 ECDSA.Certificate = server-ecdsa.pem 53 Ciphers = ALL:!RC4 54 55An application could call: 56 57 if (CONF_modules_load_file("config.cnf", "testapp", 0) <= 0) { 58 fprintf(stderr, "Error processing config file\n"); 59 goto err; 60 } 61 62 ctx = SSL_CTX_new(TLS_server_method()); 63 64 if (SSL_CTX_config(ctx, "server") == 0) { 65 fprintf(stderr, "Error configuring server.\n"); 66 goto err; 67 } 68 69In this example two certificates and the cipher list are configured without 70the need for any additional application code. 71 72=head1 SEE ALSO 73 74L<config(5)>, 75L<SSL_CONF_cmd(3)>, 76L<CONF_modules_load_file(3)> 77 78=head1 HISTORY 79 80SSL_CTX_config() and SSL_config() were first added to OpenSSL 1.1.0 81 82=head1 COPYRIGHT 83 84Copyright 2015-2016 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
