SSL Functions

The public functions listed here are used to configure sockets for communication via the SSL and TLS protocols. In addition to the functions listed here, applications that support SSL use some Certificate Functions, Crypto Functions, and Utility Functions,

Other sources of information:

If documentation is available for a function listed below, the function name is linked to its entry in the SSL Reference. The LXR summary for each function provides links to the function definition, prototype definition, and source code references. The NSS version column indicates which versions of NSS support the function.
