SSL_set_connect_state(3)     OpenSSL     SSL_set_connect_state(3)


NAME

     SSL_set_connect_state, SSL_get_accept_state - prepare SSL
     object to work in client or server mode


SYNOPSIS

      #include <openssl/ssl.h>

      void SSL_set_connect_state(SSL *ssl);

      void SSL_set_accept_state(SSL *ssl);


DESCRIPTION

     SSL_set_connect_state() sets ssl to work in client mode.

     SSL_set_accept_state() sets ssl to work in server mode.


NOTES

     When the SSL_CTX object was created with SSL_CTX_new(3), it
     was either assigned a dedicated client method, a dedicated
     server method, or a generic method, that can be used for
     both client and server connections. (The method might have
     been changed with SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version(3) or
     SSL_set_ssl_method(3).)

     When beginning a new handshake, the SSL engine must know
     whether it must call the connect (client) or accept (server)
     routines. Even though it may be clear from the method
     chosen, whether client or server mode was requested, the
     handshake routines must be explicitly set.

     When using the SSL_connect(3) or SSL_accept(3) routines, the
     correct handshake routines are automatically set. When
     performing a transparent negotiation using SSL_write(3) or
     SSL_read(3), the handshake routines must be explicitly set
     in advance using either SSL_set_connect_state() or
     SSL_set_accept_state().


RETURN VALUES

     SSL_set_connect_state() and SSL_set_accept_state() do not
     return diagnostic information.
