+\&\fISSL_CIPHER_get_name()\fR returns a pointer to the name of \fBcipher\fR. If the

+returned.
+.PP
+\&\fISSL_CIPHER_get_bits()\fR returns the number of secret bits used for \fBcipher\fR. If
+\&\fBalg_bits\fR is not \s-1NULL,\s0 it contains the number of bits processed by the
+chosen algorithm. If \fBcipher\fR is \s-1NULL, 0\s0 is returned.
+.PP
+\&\fISSL_CIPHER_get_version()\fR returns string which indicates the \s-1SSL/TLS\s0 protocol
+version that first defined the cipher.
+This is currently \fBSSLv2\fR or \fBTLSv1/SSLv3\fR.
+In some cases it should possibly return \*(L"TLSv1.2\*(R" but does not;
+use \fISSL_CIPHER_description()\fR instead.
+If \fBcipher\fR is \s-1NULL, \*(L"\s0(\s-1NONE\s0)\*(R" is returned.
+.PP
+\&\fISSL_CIPHER_description()\fR returns a textual description of the cipher used
+into the buffer \fBbuf\fR of length \fBlen\fR provided. \fBlen\fR must be at least
+128 bytes, otherwise a pointer to the string \*(L"Buffer too small\*(R" is
+returned. If \fBbuf\fR is \s-1NULL,\s0 a buffer of 128 bytes is allocated using
+\&\fIOPENSSL_malloc()\fR. If the allocation fails, a pointer to the string
+\&\*(L"OPENSSL_malloc Error\*(R" is returned.
+.SH "NOTES"
+.IX Header "NOTES"
+The number of bits processed can be different from the secret bits. An
+export cipher like e.g. \s-1EXP\-RC4\-MD5\s0 has only 40 secret bits. The algorithm
+does use the full 128 bits (which would be returned for \fBalg_bits\fR), of
+which however 88bits are fixed. The search space is hence only 40 bits.
+.PP
+The string returned by \fISSL_CIPHER_description()\fR in case of success consists
+of cleartext information separated by one or more blanks in the following
+sequence:
+.IP "<ciphername>" 4

+Textual representation of the cipher name.
+.IP "<protocol version>" 4
+.IX Item "<protocol version>"
+Protocol version: \fBSSLv2\fR, \fBSSLv3\fR, \fBTLSv1.2\fR. The TLSv1.0 ciphers are

+.SH "BUGS"
+.IX Header "BUGS"
+If \fISSL_CIPHER_description()\fR is called with \fBcipher\fR being \s-1NULL,\s0 the
+library crashes.
+.PP
+If \fISSL_CIPHER_description()\fR cannot handle a built-in cipher, the according
+description of the cipher property is \fBunknown\fR. This case should not
+occur.
+.PP
+The standard terminology for ephemeral Diffie-Hellman schemes is \s-1DHE
+\&\s0(finite field) or \s-1ECDHE \s0(elliptic curve). This version of OpenSSL
+idiosyncratically reports these schemes as \s-1EDH\s0 and \s-1EECDH,\s0 even though
+it also accepts the standard terminology.
+.PP
+It is recommended to use the standard terminology (\s-1DHE\s0 and \s-1ECDHE\s0)
+during configuration (e.g. via SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list) for clarity of
+configuration. OpenSSL versions after 1.0.2 will report the standard
+terms via SSL_CIPHER_get_name and SSL_CIPHER_description.
