NAME
gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length - set the maximum size of the
handshake
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>
void gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length(gnutls_session_t session,
size_t max);
ARGUMENTS
gnutls_session_t session
is a gnutls_session_t structure.
size_t max is the maximum number.
DESCRIPTION
This function will set the maximum size of all handshake messages.
Handshakes over this size are rejected with GNUTLS_E_HAND‐
SHAKE_TOO_LARGE error code. The default value is 48kb which is typi‐
cally large enough. Set this to 0 if you do not want to set an upper
limit.
The reason for restricting the handshake message sizes are to limit
Denial of Service attacks.
