NAME

nbd_set_tls_verify_peer - set whether we verify the identity of the server

SYNOPSIS

 #include <libnbd.h>

 int nbd_set_tls_verify_peer (
       struct nbd_handle *h, bool verify
     );

DESCRIPTION

Set this flag to control whether libnbd will verify the identity of the server from the server's certificate and the certificate authority. This defaults to true when connecting to TCP servers using TLS certificate authentication, and false otherwise.

This function may be called regardless of whether TLS is supported, but will have no effect unless nbd_set_tls(3) is also used to request or require TLS.

RETURN VALUE

If the call is successful the function returns 0.

ERRORS

On error -1 is returned.

Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details of the error.

The following parameters must not be NULL: h. For more information see "Non-NULL parameters" in libnbd(3).

HANDLE STATE

nbd_set_tls_verify_peer can be called when the handle is in the following state:

 ┌─────────────────────────────────────┬─────────────────────────┐
 │ Handle created, before connecting   │ ✅ allowed              │
 │ Connecting                          │ ❌ error                │
