The methods exist -in a generic type (for client and server use), a server only type, and a -client only type. B can be of the following types: - -=over 4 - -=item 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. - -=item 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(). - -=item 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. - -=item 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. - -=back - -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 B or -B 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. - -=head1 RETURN VALUES - -The following return values can occur: - -=over 4 - -=item NULL - -The creation of a new SSL_CTX object failed.
