SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       void
       gnutls_certificate_set_verify_limits(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t
       res, unsigned int max_bits, unsigned int max_depth);

ARGUMENTS         top

       gnutls_certificate_credentials_t res
                   is a gnutls_certificate_credentials type

       unsigned int max_bits
                   is the number of bits of an acceptable certificate
                   (default 8200)

       unsigned int max_depth
                   is maximum depth of the verification of a certificate
                   chain (default 5)

DESCRIPTION         top

       This function will set some upper limits for the default
       verification function, gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2(), to
       avoid denial of service attacks.  You can set them to zero to
       disable limits.
