NAME

nng_tls_engine_fips_mode − TLS FIPS 140−2 mode indicator

SYNOPSIS

#include <nng/supplemental/tls/tls.h>

bool nng_tls_engine_fips_mode(void);

DESCRIPTION

The nng_tls_engine_fips_mode() returns true if the TLS engine is operating in FIPS 140−2 mode, and false otherwise.

Tip

FIPS 140−2 references a United States standard for the use of cryptography in information processing systems.

Tip

The default TLS engine does not support FIPS 140−2 mode, and will always return false. Alternative implementations with such support may be available from commercial suppliers.

Note

Generally the FIPS 140−2 mode cannot be changed after program startup.

RETURN VALUES

True if the TLS engine is in FIPS 140−2 mode, false otherwise.

ERRORS

None.

nng_tls_engine(5), nng(7)
