+=head1 NAME
+
+SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version, SSL_set_ssl_method, SSL_get_ssl_method
+- choose a new TLS/SSL method
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/ssl.h>
+
+ int SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version(SSL_CTX *ctx, const SSL_METHOD *method);
+ int SSL_set_ssl_method(SSL *s, const SSL_METHOD *method);
+ const SSL_METHOD *SSL_get_ssl_method(SSL *ssl);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version() sets a new default TLS/SSL B<method> for SSL objects
+newly created from this B<ctx>. SSL objects already created with
+L<SSL_new(3)|SSL_new(3)> are not affected, except when
+L<SSL_clear(3)|SSL_clear(3)> is being called.
+
+SSL_set_ssl_method() sets a new TLS/SSL B<method> for a particular B<ssl>
+object. It may be reset, when SSL_clear() is called.
+
+SSL_get_ssl_method() returns a function pointer to the TLS/SSL method
+set in B<ssl>.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+The available B<method> choices are described in
+L<SSL_CTX_new(3)|SSL_CTX_new(3)>.
+
+When L<SSL_clear(3)|SSL_clear(3)> is called and no session is connected to
+an SSL object, the method of the SSL object is reset to the method currently
+set in the corresponding SSL_CTX object.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+The following return values can occur for SSL_CTX_set_ssl_version()
+and SSL_set_ssl_method():
+
+=over 4
+
+=item Z<>0
+
+The new choice failed, check the error stack to find out the reason.
+
+=item Z<>1
+
+The operation succeeded.
