Name

gnutls−serv — GnuTLS test server

DESCRIPTION

Simple server program that listens to incoming TLS connections.

OPTIONS

Program control options

−d, −−debug LEVEL

Specify the debug level. Default is 1.

−h, −−help

prints this help

−l, −−list

Print a list of the supported algorithms and modes.

−q, −−quiet

Suppress some messages.

−v, −−version

prints the program's version number

Server options

−p, −−port integer

The port to listen on.

−−nodb

Does not use the resume database.

−−http

Act as an HTTP Server.

−−echo

Act as an Echo Server.

TLS/SSL control options

−−priority PRIORITY STRING

TLS algorithms and protocols to enable. You can use predefined sets of ciphersuites such as:

PERFORMANCE

all the "secure" ciphersuites are enabled, limited to 128 bit ciphers and sorted by terms of speed performance.

NORMAL

option enables all "secure" ciphersuites. The 256-bit ciphers are included as a fallback only. The ciphers are sorted by security margin.

SECURE128

flag enables all "secure" ciphersuites with ciphers up to 128 bits, sorted by security margin.

SECURE256

flag enables all "secure" ciphersuites including the 256 bit ciphers, sorted by security margin.

EXPORT

all the ciphersuites are enabled, including the low-security 40 bit ciphers.

NONE

nothing is enabled. This disables even protocols and compression methods.

Check the GnuTLS manual on section "Priority strings" for more information on allowed keywords.

Examples:

"NORMAL"

"NONE:+VERS-TLS-ALL:+MAC-ALL:+RSA:+AES-128-CBC:+SIGN-ALL:+COMP-NULL"

"NORMAL:-ARCFOUR-128" means normal ciphers except for ARCFOUR-128.

"SECURE:-VERS-SSL3.0:+COMP-DEFLATE" means that only secure ciphers are enabled, SSL3.0 is disabled, and libz compression enabled.

"NONE:+VERS-TLS-ALL:+AES-128-CBC:+RSA:+SHA1:+COMP-NULL:+SIGN-RSA-SHA1"

"NORMAL:%COMPAT" is the most compatible mode

−g, −−generate

Generate Diffie-Hellman Parameters.

−−kx kx1 kx2...

Key exchange methods to enable (use gnutls−cli −−list to show the supported key exchange methods).

−p, −−port integer

The port to connect to.

Certificate options

−−pgpcertfile FILE

PGP Public Key (certificate) file to use.

−−pgpkeyfile FILE

PGP Key file to use.

−−pgpkeyring FILE

PGP Key ring file to use.

−−pgptrustdb FILE

PGP trustdb file to use.

−−srppasswd FILE

SRP password file to use.

−−srppasswdconf FILE

SRP password configuration file to use.

−−x509cafile FILE

Certificate file to use.

−−x509certfile FILE

X.509 Certificate file to use.

−−x509fmtder

Use DER format for certificates

−−x509keyfile FILE

X.509 key file to use.
