Simple client program to set up a TLS connection to some other computer.
It sets up a TLS connection and forwards data from the standard input to the secured socket and vice versa.
This section was generated by @strong{AutoGen},
using the @code{agtexi-cmd} template and the option descriptions for the @code{gnutls-cli} program.

@anchor{gnutls-cli usage}
@subheading gnutls-cli help/usage (-h)
@cindex gnutls-cli help
This is the automatically generated usage text for gnutls-cli.
The text printed is the same whether for the @code{help} option (-h) or the @code{more-help} option (-!). @code{more-help} will print
the usage text by passing it through a pager program.
@code{more-help} is disabled on platforms without a working
@code{fork(2)} function. The @code{PAGER} environment variable is
used to select the program, defaulting to @file{more}. Both will exit
with a status code of 0.

@anchor{gnutls-cli debug}
@subheading debug option (-d)
@cindex gnutls-cli-debug
This is the ``enable debugging.'' option.
This option takes an argument number.
Specifies the debug level.
@anchor{gnutls-cli tofu}
@subheading tofu option
@cindex gnutls-cli-tofu
This is the ``enable trust on first use authentication'' option.
This option will, in addition to certificate authentication, perform authentication based on previously seen public keys, a model similar to SSH authentication.
@anchor{gnutls-cli ocsp}
@subheading ocsp option
@cindex gnutls-cli-ocsp
This is the ``enable ocsp certificate verification'' option.
This option will enable verification of the peer's certificate using ocsp
@anchor{gnutls-cli resume}
@subheading resume option (-r)
@cindex gnutls-cli-resume
This is the ``establish a session and resume'' option.
Connect, establish a session, reconnect and resume.
@anchor{gnutls-cli rehandshake}
@subheading rehandshake option (-e)
@cindex gnutls-cli-rehandshake
This is the ``establish a session and rehandshake'' option.
Connect, establish a session and rehandshake immediately.
@anchor{gnutls-cli starttls}
@subheading starttls option (-s)
@cindex gnutls-cli-starttls
This is the ``connect, establish a plain session and start tls.'' option.
The TLS session will be initiated when EOF or a SIGALRM is received.
@anchor{gnutls-cli dh-bits}
@subheading dh-bits option
@cindex gnutls-cli-dh-bits
This is the ``the minimum number of bits allowed for dh'' option.
This option takes an argument number.
This option sets the minimum number of bits allowed for a Diffie-Hellman key exchange. You may want to lower the default value if the peer sends a weak prime and you get an connection error with unacceptable prime.
@anchor{gnutls-cli priority}
@subheading priority option
@cindex gnutls-cli-priority
This is the ``priorities string'' option.
This option takes an argument string.
TLS algorithms and protocols to enable. You can
use predefined sets of ciphersuites such as PERFORMANCE,
NORMAL, SECURE128, SECURE256.
Check the GnuTLS manual on section ``Priority strings'' for more
information on allowed keywords
@anchor{gnutls-cli list}
@subheading list option (-l)
@cindex gnutls-cli-list
This is the ``print a list of the supported algorithms and modes'' option.
Print a list of the supported algorithms and modes. If a priority string is given then only the enabled ciphersuites are shown.
@anchor{gnutls-cli exit status}
@subheading gnutls-cli exit status
One of the following exit values will be returned:
@table @samp
@item 0 (EXIT_SUCCESS)
Successful program execution.
@item 1 (EXIT_FAILURE)
The operation failed or the command syntax was not valid.

@subheading Connecting using PSK authentication
To connect to a server using PSK authentication, you need to enable the choice of PSK by using a cipher priority parameter such as in the example below.
@example
$ ./gnutls-cli -p 5556 localhost --pskusername psk_identity \
--pskkey 88f3824b3e5659f52d00e959bacab954b6540344 \
--priority NORMAL:-KX-ALL:+ECDHE-PSK:+DHE-PSK:+PSK
Resolving 'localhost'...
Connecting to '127.0.0.1:5556'...
- PSK authentication.
- Version: TLS1.1
- Key Exchange: PSK
- Cipher: AES-128-CBC
- MAC: SHA1
- Compression: NULL
- Handshake was completed
- Simple Client Mode:
@end example
By keeping the --pskusername parameter and removing the --pskkey parameter, it will query only for the password during the handshake.
@subheading Listing ciphersuites in a priority string
To list the ciphersuites in a priority string:
@example
$ ./gnutls-cli --priority SECURE192 -l
Cipher suites for SECURE192
