SSL_CTX_new(3)                                     OpenSSL                                    SSL_CTX_new(3)



NAME
       SSL_CTX_new - create a new SSL_CTX object as framework for TLS/SSL enabled functions

SYNOPSIS
        #include <openssl/ssl.h>

        SSL_CTX *SSL_CTX_new(SSL_METHOD *method);

DESCRIPTION
       SSL_CTX_new() creates a new SSL_CTX object as framework to establish TLS/SSL enabled connections.

NOTES
       The SSL_CTX object uses method as connection method. The methods exist in a generic type (for client
       and server use), a server only type, and a client only type. method can be of the following types:

       SSLv2_method(void), SSLv2_server_method(void), SSLv2_client_method(void)
           A TLS/SSL connection established with these methods will only understand the SSLv2 protocol. A
           client will send out SSLv2 client hello messages and will also indicate that it only understand
           SSLv2. A server will only understand SSLv2 client hello messages.

       SSLv3_method(void), SSLv3_server_method(void), SSLv3_client_method(void)
           A TLS/SSL connection established with these methods will only understand the SSLv3 protocol. A
           client will send out SSLv3 client hello messages and will indicate that it only understands
           SSLv3. A server will only understand SSLv3 client hello messages. This especially means, that it
           will not understand SSLv2 client hello messages which are widely used for compatibility reasons,
           see SSLv23_*_method().

       TLSv1_method(void), TLSv1_server_method(void), TLSv1_client_method(void)
           A TLS/SSL connection established with these methods will only understand the TLSv1 protocol. A
           client will send out TLSv1 client hello messages and will indicate that it only understands
           TLSv1. A server will only understand TLSv1 client hello messages. This especially means, that it
           will not understand SSLv2 client hello messages which are widely used for compatibility reasons,
           see SSLv23_*_method(). It will also not understand SSLv3 client hello messages.

       SSLv23_method(void), SSLv23_server_method(void), SSLv23_client_method(void)
           A TLS/SSL connection established with these methods will understand the SSLv2, SSLv3, and TLSv1
           protocol. A client will send out SSLv2 client hello messages and will indicate that it also
           understands SSLv3 and TLSv1. A server will understand SSLv2, SSLv3, and TLSv1 client hello
           messages. This is the best choice when compatibility is a concern.

       The list of protocols available can later be limited using the SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2, SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3,
       SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1 options of the SSL_CTX_set_options() or SSL_set_options() functions. Using these
       options it is possible to choose e.g. SSLv23_server_method() and be able to negotiate with all
       possible clients, but to only allow newer protocols like SSLv3 or TLSv1.

       SSL_CTX_new() initializes the list of ciphers, the session cache setting, the callbacks, the keys and
       certificates, and the options to its default values.

RETURN VALUES
       The following return values can occur:

       NULL
           The creation of a new SSL_CTX object failed. Check the error stack to find out the reason.

       Pointer to an SSL_CTX object
           The return value points to an allocated SSL_CTX object.
