=head1 NAME
openssl - OpenSSL command line tool
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<openssl>
I<command>
[ I<command_opts> ]
[ I<command_args> ]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
OpenSSL is a cryptography toolkit implementing the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL
v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) network protocols and related
cryptography standards required by them.
The B<openssl> program is a command line tool for using the various
cryptography functions of OpenSSL's B<crypto> library from the shell.
It can be used for
o Creation of RSA, DH and DSA key parameters
o Creation of X.509 certificates, CSRs and CRLs
o Calculation of Message Digests
o Encryption and Decryption with Ciphers
o SSL/TLS Client and Server Tests
=head1 COMMAND SUMMARY
The B<openssl> program provides a rich variety of commands (I<command> in the
SYNOPSIS above), each of which often has a wealth of options and arguments
(I<command_opts> and I<command_args> in the SYNOPSIS).
=head2 STANDARD COMMANDS
=over 10
=item B<asn1parse>
Parse an ASN.1 sequence.
=item B<ca>
Certificate Authority (CA) Management.
=item B<ciphers>
Cipher Suite Description Determination.
=item B<crl>
Certificate Revocation List (CRL) Management.
=item B<crl2pkcs7>
CRL2 to PKCS#7 Conversion.
=item B<dgst>
Message Digest Calculation.
=item B<dh>
Diffie-Hellman Data Management.
=item B<dsa>
DSA Data Management.
=item B<dsaparam>
DSA Parameter Generation.
=item B<enc>
Encoding with Ciphers.
=item B<errstr>
Error Number to Error String Conversion.
=item B<gendh>
Generation of Diffie-Hellman Parameters.
=item B<gendsa>
Generation of DSA Parameters.
=item B<genrsa>
Generation of RSA Parameters.
=item B<pkcs7>
PKCS#7 Data Management.
=item B<req>
X.509 Certificate Signing Request (CSR) Management.
=item B<rsa>
RSA Data Management.
=item B<s_client>
This implements a generic SSL/TLS client which can establish a transparent
connection to a remote server speaking SSL/TLS. It's intended for testing
purposes only and provides only rudimentary interface functionality but
internally uses mostly all functionality of the OpenSSL B<ssl> library.
=item B<s_server>
This implements a generic SSL/TLS server which accepts connections from remote
clients speaking SSL/TLS. It's intended for testing purposes only and provides
only rudimentary interface functionality but internally uses mostly all
functionality of the OpenSSL B<ssl> library. It provides both an own command
line oriented protocol for testing SSL functions and a simple HTTP response
facility to emulate an SSL/TLS-aware webserver.
=item B<s_time>
SSL Connection Timer.
=item B<sess_id>
SSL Session Data Management.
=item B<speed>
Algorithm Speed Measurement.
=item B<verify>
X.509 Certificate Verification.
=item B<version>
OpenSSL Version Information.
=item B<x509>
X.509 Certificate Data Management.
