Since this is a diagnostic tool that +needs some knowledge of the SSL protocol to use properly, most users will +not need to use it. + +=head1 OPTIONS + +=over 4 + +=item B<-help> + +Print out a usage message. + +=item B<-inform DER|PEM> + +This specifies the input format. The B<DER> option uses an ASN1 DER encoded +format containing session details. The precise format can vary from one version +to the next. The B<PEM> form is the default format: it consists of the B<DER> +format base64 encoded with additional header and footer lines. + +=item B<-outform DER|PEM|NSS> + +This specifies the output format. The B<PEM> and B<DER> options have the same meaning +as the B<-inform> option. The B<NSS> option outputs the session id and the master key +in NSS keylog format. + +=item B<-in filename> + +This specifies the input filename to read session information from or standard +input by default. + +=item B<-out filename> + +This specifies the output filename to write session information to or standard +output if this option is not specified. + +=item B<-text> + +prints out the various public or private key components in +plain text in addition to the encoded version. + +=item B<-cert> + +if a certificate is present in the session it will be output using this option, +if the B<-text> option is also present then it will be printed out in text form. + +=item B<-noout> + +this option prevents output of the encoded version of the session. + +=item B<-context ID> + +this option can set the session id so the output session information uses the +supplied ID. The ID can be any string of characters.

Therefore appropriate security precautions +should be taken if the information is being output by a "real" application. This is +however strongly discouraged and should only be used for debugging purposes. + +=head1 BUGS + +The cipher and start time should be printed out in human readable form. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<ciphers(1)>, L<s_server(1)> + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +Copyright 2000-2016 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
