17 SSL_set_connect_state() sets ssl to work in client mode.

19 SSL_set_accept_state() sets ssl to work in server mode.

22 When the SSL_CTX object was created with SSL_CTX_new(3), it was either
23 assigned a dedicated client method, a dedicated server method, or a
24 generic method, that can be used for both client and server
25 connections. (The method might have been changed with
26 SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version(3) or SSL_set_ssl_method(3).)
27
28 When beginning a new handshake, the SSL engine must know whether it
29 must call the connect (client) or accept (server) routines. Even though
30 it may be clear from the method chosen, whether client or server mode
31 was requested, the handshake routines must be explicitly set.
32
33 When using the SSL_connect(3) or SSL_accept(3) routines, the correct
34 handshake routines are automatically set. When performing a transparent
35 negotiation using SSL_write(3) or SSL_read(3), the handshake routines
36 must be explicitly set in advance using either SSL_set_connect_state()
37 or SSL_set_accept_state().
38
40 SSL_set_connect_state() and SSL_set_accept_state() do not return
41 diagnostic information.
