(The method might have been changed with .Xr SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version 3 or .Xr SSL_set_ssl_method 3 . ) .Pp When beginning a new handshake, the SSL engine must know whether it must call the connect (client) or accept (server) routines. Even though it may be clear from the method chosen whether client or server mode was requested, the handshake routines must be explicitly set. .Pp When using the .Xr SSL_connect 3 or .Xr SSL_accept 3 routines, the correct handshake routines are automatically set. When performing a transparent negotiation using .Xr SSL_write 3 or .Xr SSL_read 3 , the handshake routines must be explicitly set in advance using either .Fn SSL_set_connect_state or .Fn SSL_set_accept_state . .Pp If .Fn SSL_is_server is called before .Fn SSL_set_connect_state or .Fn SSL_set_accept_state was called either automatically or explicitly, the result depends on what method was used when the .Fa SSL_CTX was created. If a generic method or a dedicated server method was passed to .Xr SSL_CTX_new 3 , .Fn SSL_is_server returns 1; otherwise, it returns 0. .Sh RETURN VALUES .Fn SSL_is_server returns 1 if .Fa ssl is set to server mode or 0 if it is set to client mode. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr ssl 3 , .Xr SSL_accept 3 , .Xr SSL_connect 3 , .Xr SSL_CTX_new 3 , .Xr SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version 3 , .Xr SSL_do_handshake 3 , .Xr SSL_new 3 , .Xr SSL_read 3 , .Xr SSL_write 3 .Sh HISTORY .Fn SSL_set_connect_state and .Fn SSL_set_accept_state first appeared in SSLeay 0.6.0 and have been available since .Ox 2.4 . .Pp .Fn SSL_is_server first appeared in OpenSSL 1.0.2 and has been available since .Ox 6.3 .
