The function SSL_CONF_cmd() performs configuration operation B<cmd> with
optional parameter B<value> on B<ctx>. Its purpose is to simplify application
configuration of B<SSL_CTX> or B<SSL> structures by providing a common
-framework for configuration files or command line options.

+
+Currently supported B<cmd> names for command lines (i.e. when the
+flag B<SSL_CONF_CMDLINE> is set) are listed below. Note: all B<cmd> names
+and are case sensitive. Unless otherwise stated commands can be used by
+both clients and servers and the B<value> parameter is not used. The default
+prefix for command line commands is B<-> and that is reflected below.

+=item B<-sigalgs>
+
+This sets the supported signature algorithms for TLS v1.2. For clients this
+value is used directly for the supported signature algorithms extension. For
+servers it is used to determine which signature algorithms to support.
+
+The B<value> argument should be a colon separated list of signature algorithms
+in order of decreasing preference of the form B<algorithm+hash>. B<algorithm>
+is one of B<RSA>, B<DSA> or B<ECDSA> and B<hash> is a supported algorithm
+OID short name such as B<SHA1>, B<SHA224>, B<SHA256>, B<SHA384> of B<SHA512>.
+Note: algorithm and hash names are case sensitive.
+
+If this option is not set then all signature algorithms supported by the
+OpenSSL library are permissible.
+
+=item B<-client_sigalgs>
+
+This sets the supported signature algorithms associated with client
+authentication for TLS v1.2. For servers the value is used in the supported
+signature algorithms field of a certificate request. For clients it is
+used to determine which signature algorithm to with the client certificate.
+If a server does not request a certificate this option has no effect.

+The syntax of B<value> is identical to B<-sigalgs>. If not set then
+the value set for B<-sigalgs> will be used instead.

+=item B<-curves>
+
+This sets the supported elliptic curves. For servers the curves are
+sent using the supported curves extension for TLS v1.2. For clients it is used
+to determine which curve to use. This setting affects curves used for both
+signatures and key exchange, if applicable.
+
+The B<value> argument is a colon separated list of curves. The curve can be
+either the B<NIST> name (e.g. B<P-256>) or an OpenSSL OID name (e.g
+B<prime256v1>). Curve names are case sensitive.

+
+This sets the temporary curve used for ephemeral ECDH modes. Only used by

+
+The B<value> argument is a curve name or the special value B<auto> which

+can be either the B<NIST> name (e.g. B<P-256>) or an OpenSSL OID name
+(e.g B<prime256v1>). Curve names are case sensitive.
