gnutls_server_name_set(3)          gnutls          gnutls_server_name_set(3)

NAME         top

       gnutls_server_name_set - API function

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>
       int gnutls_server_name_set(gnutls_session_t session,
       gnutls_server_name_type_t type, const void * name, size_t
       name_length);

ARGUMENTS         top

       gnutls_session_t session
                   is a gnutls_session_t type.
       gnutls_server_name_type_t type
                   specifies the indicator type
       const void * name
                   is a string that contains the server name.
       size_t name_length
                   holds the length of name

DESCRIPTION         top

       This function is to be used by clients that want to inform (via a TLS
       extension mechanism) the server of the name they connected to.  This
       should be used by clients that connect to servers that do virtual
       hosting.
       The value of  name depends on the  type type.  In case of
       GNUTLS_NAME_DNS, a UTF-8 null-terminated domain name string, without
       the trailing dot, is expected.
       IPv4 or IPv6 addresses are not permitted to be set by this function.
       If the function is called with a name of  name_length zero it will
       clear all server names set.

RETURNS         top

       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative
       error code is returned.
