- *
- * The SSL/TLS communication module provides the means to create an SSL/TLS
- * communication channel.
- * The basic provisions are:
- * - initialise an SSL/TLS context (see \c ssl_init()).
- * - perform an SSL/TLS handshake (see \c ssl_handshake()).
- * - read/write (see \c ssl_read() and \c ssl_write()).
- * - notify a peer that conection is being closed (see \c ssl_close_notify()).
- *
- *
- * Many aspects of such a channel are set through parameters and callback
- * functions:
- * - the endpoint role: client or server.
- * - the authentication mode. Should verification take place.
- * - the Host-to-host communication channel. A TCP/IP module is provided.
- * - the random number generator (RNG).
- * - the ciphers to use for encryption/decryption.
- * - session control functions.
- * - X.509 parameters for certificate-handling and key exchange.
- *
- *
- * This module can be used to create an SSL/TLS server and client and to provide a basic
- * framework to setup and communicate through an SSL/TLS communication channel.\n
- * Note that you need to provide for several aspects yourself as mentioned above.
