# NAME

SSL_CTX_set_tmp_ecdh, SSL_set_tmp_ecdh, SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto, SSL_set_ecdh_auto - handle ECDH keys for ephemeral key exchange

# SYNOPSIS

     #include <openssl/ssl.h>

     long SSL_CTX_set_tmp_ecdh(SSL_CTX *ctx, const EC_KEY *ecdh);
     long SSL_set_tmp_ecdh(SSL *ssl, const EC_KEY *ecdh);

     long SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(SSL_CTX *ctx, int state);
     long SSL_set_ecdh_auto(SSL *ssl, int state);

# DESCRIPTION

`SSL_CTX_set_tmp_ecdh()` sets ECDH parameters to be used to be ecdh. The key is inherited by all ssl objects created from ctx. This macro is deprecated in favor of SSL_CTX_set1_groups(3).

`SSL_set_tmp_ecdh()` sets the parameters only for ssl. This macro is deprecated in favor of SSL_set1_groups(3).

`SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto()` and `SSL_set_ecdh_auto()` are deprecated and have no effect.

# RETURN VALUES

`SSL_CTX_set_tmp_ecdh()` and `SSL_set_tmp_ecdh()` return 1 on success and 0 on failure.

# SEE ALSO
