A degree of future proofing can also be achieved: an application can support configuration features in newer versions of OpenSSL automatically.</p> <p>A configuration file must have been previously loaded, for example using CONF_modules_load_file(). See <a href="../man5/config.html">config(5)</a> for details of the configuration file syntax.</p> <h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1> <p>SSL_CTX_config() and SSL_config() return 1 for success or 0 if an error occurred.</p> <h1 id="EXAMPLES">EXAMPLES</h1> <p>If the file "config.cnf" contains the following:</p> <pre><code> testapp = test_sect [test_sect] # list of configuration modules ssl_conf = ssl_sect [ssl_sect] server = server_section [server_section] RSA.Certificate = server-rsa.pem ECDSA.Certificate = server-ecdsa.pem Ciphers = ALL:!RC4</code></pre> <p>An application could call:</p> <pre><code> if (CONF_modules_load_file("config.cnf", "testapp", 0) <= 0) { fprintf(stderr, "Error processing config file\n"); goto err; } ctx = SSL_CTX_new(TLS_server_method()); if (SSL_CTX_config(ctx, "server") == 0) { fprintf(stderr, "Error configuring server.\n"); goto err; }</code></pre> <p>In this example two certificates and the cipher list are configured without the need for any additional application code.</p> <h1 id="SEE-ALSO">SEE ALSO</h1> <p><a href="../man5/config.html">config(5)</a>, <a href="../man3/SSL_CONF_cmd.html">SSL_CONF_cmd(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/CONF_modules_load_file.html">CONF_modules_load_file(3)</a></p> <h1 id="HISTORY">HISTORY</h1> <p>The SSL_CTX_config() and SSL_config() functions were added in OpenSSL 1.1.0.</p> <h1 id="COPYRIGHT">COPYRIGHT</h1> <p>Copyright 2015-2019 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
