Name

gnutls_rsa_params_generate2 — generate temporary RSA parameters

Synopsis

#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>
int gnutls_rsa_params_generate2( gnutls_rsa_params_t   params,
  unsigned int   bits);

ARGUMENTS

gnutls_rsa_params_t params

The structure where the parameters will be stored

unsigned int bits

is the prime's number of bits

DESCRIPTION

This function will generate new temporary RSA parameters for use in RSA−EXPORT ciphersuites. This function is normally slow.

Note that if the parameters are to be used in export cipher suites the bits value should be 512 or less. Also note that the generation of new RSA parameters is only useful to servers. Clients use the parameters sent by the server, thus it's no use calling this in client side.
