| /**
 | |
|  * @mainpage PolarSSL v1.3.2 source code documentation
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * This documentation describes the internal structure of PolarSSL.  It was
 | |
|  * automatically generated from specially formatted comment blocks in
 | |
|  * PolarSSL's source code using Doxygen.  (See
 | |
|  * http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/ for more information on Doxygen)
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * PolarSSL has a simple setup: it provides the ingredients for an SSL/TLS
 | |
|  * implementation. These ingredients are listed as modules in the
 | |
|  * \ref mainpage_modules "Modules section". This "Modules section" introduces
 | |
|  * the high-level module concepts used throughout this documentation.\n
 | |
|  * Some examples of PolarSSL usage can be found in the \ref mainpage_examples
 | |
|  * "Examples section".
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * @section mainpage_modules Modules
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * PolarSSL supports SSLv3 up to TLSv1.2 communication by providing the
 | |
|  * following:
 | |
|  * - TCP/IP communication functions: listen, connect, accept, read/write.
 | |
|  * - SSL/TLS communication functions: init, handshake, read/write.
 | |
|  * - X.509 functions: CRT, CRL and key handling
 | |
|  * - Random number generation
 | |
|  * - Hashing
 | |
|  * - Encryption/decryption
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * Above functions are split up neatly into logical interfaces. These can be
 | |
|  * used separately to provide any of the above functions or to mix-and-match
 | |
|  * into an SSL server/client solution that utilises a X.509 PKI. Examples of
 | |
|  * such implementations are amply provided with the source code.
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * Note that PolarSSL does not provide a control channel or (multiple) session
 | |
|  * handling without additional work from the developer.
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * @section mainpage_examples Examples
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * Example server setup:
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * \b Prerequisites:
 | |
|  * - X.509 certificate and private key
 | |
|  * - session handling functions
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * \b Setup:
 | |
|  * - Load your certificate and your private RSA key (X.509 interface)
 | |
|  * - Setup the listening TCP socket (TCP/IP interface)
 | |
|  * - Accept incoming client connection (TCP/IP interface)
 | |
|  * - Initialise as an SSL-server (SSL/TLS interface)
 | |
|  *   - Set parameters, e.g. authentication, ciphers, CA-chain, key exchange
 | |
|  *   - Set callback functions RNG, IO, session handling
 | |
|  * - Perform an SSL-handshake (SSL/TLS interface)
 | |
|  * - Read/write data (SSL/TLS interface)
 | |
|  * - Close and cleanup (all interfaces)
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * Example client setup:
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * \b Prerequisites:
 | |
|  * - X.509 certificate and private key
 | |
|  * - X.509 trusted CA certificates
 | |
|  *
 | |
|  * \b Setup:
 | |
|  * - Load the trusted CA certificates (X.509 interface)
 | |
|  * - Load your certificate and your private RSA key (X.509 interface)
 | |
|  * - Setup a TCP/IP connection (TCP/IP interface)
 | |
|  * - Initialise as an SSL-client (SSL/TLS interface)
 | |
|  *   - Set parameters, e.g. authentication mode, ciphers, CA-chain, session
 | |
|  *   - Set callback functions RNG, IO
 | |
|  * - Perform an SSL-handshake (SSL/TLS interface)
 | |
|  * - Verify the server certificate (SSL/TLS interface)
 | |
|  * - Write/read data (SSL/TLS interface)
 | |
|  * - Close and cleanup (all interfaces)
