DESCRIPTION

15       TLS debug client. It sets up multiple TLS connections to a  server  and
16       queries its capabilities. It was created to assist in debugging GnuTLS,
17       but it might be useful to extract a TLS server's capabilities.  It con‐
18       nects  to a TLS server, performs tests and print the server's capabili‐
19       ties. If called with the `-V' parameter more checks will be  performed.
20       Can be used to check for servers with special needs or bugs.

OPTIONS

24       -d num, --debug=num
25              Enable  debugging.   This  option takes an integer number as its
26              argument.  The value of num is constrained to being:
27                  in the range 0 through 9999
28
29              Specifies the debug level.
30
31       -V, --verbose
32              More verbose output.
33
34
35       -p num, --port=num
36              The port to connect to.  This option takes an integer number as
37              its argument.  The value of num is constrained to being:
38                  in the range 0 through 65536
39
40
41       --app-proto
42              This is an alias for the --starttls-proto option.
43
44       --starttls-proto=str
45              The application protocol to be used to obtain the server's cer‐
46              tificate (https, ftp, smtp, imap, ldap, xmpp, lmtp, pop3, nntp,
47              sieve, postgres).
48
49              Specify the application layer protocol for STARTTLS. If the pro‐
50              tocol is supported, gnutls-cli will proceed to the TLS negotia‐
51              tion.
52
53       -v arg, --version=arg
54              Output version of program and exit.  The default mode is `v', a
55              simple version.  The `c' mode will print copyright information
56              and `n' will print the full copyright notice.
57
58       -h, --help
59              Display usage information and exit.
60
61       -!, --more-help
62              Pass the extended usage information through a pager.
