gnutls_dh_params_generate2 — generate new DH parameters
#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>
int
gnutls_dh_params_generate2( |
gnutls_dh_params_t | params, |
| unsigned int | bits); |
Is the structure that the DH parameters will be stored
is the prime's number of bits
This function will generate a new pair of prime and
generator for use in the Diffie−Hellman key exchange.
The new parameters will be allocated using gnutls_malloc() and will be stored in the
appropriate datum. This function is normally slow.
Note that the bits value should be one of 768, 1024, 2048, 3072 or 4096. Also note that the DH parameters are only useful to servers. Since clients use the parameters sent by the server, it's of no use to call this in client side.
The full documentation for gnutls is maintained as a Texinfo manual. If the info and gnutls programs are properly installed at your site, the command
info gnutls
should give you access to the complete manual.
