NAME         top

       gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode - API function

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       void gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode(gnutls_session_t
       session);

ARGUMENTS         top

       gnutls_session_t session
                   is a gnutls_session_t type.

DESCRIPTION         top

       This function can be used to disable certain (security) features
       in TLS in order to maintain maximum compatibility with buggy
       clients. Because several trade-offs with security are enabled, if
       required they will be reported through the audit subsystem.

       Normally only servers that require maximum compatibility with
       everything out there, need to call this function.

       Note that this function must be called after any call to
       gnutls_priority functions.

SINCE         top

       2.1.4
