# tls.priorityString

Passes a custom GnuTLS priority string to fine-tune cryptographic parameters.

This parameter applies to imrelp: RELP Input Module.

Name:

  tls.priorityString

Scope:

  input

Type:

  string

Default:

  input=none

Required?:

  no

Introduced:

  Not documented

## Description

This parameter allows passing the so-called “priority string” to GnuTLS. This string gives complete control over all crypto parameters, including compression settings. For this reason, when `tls.priorityString` is specified, the tls.compression parameter has no effect and is ignored.

Full information about how to construct a priority string can be found in the GnuTLS manual. At the time of writing, this information was contained in section 6.10 of the GnuTLS manual.

Note: this is an expert parameter. Do not use if you do not exactly know what you are doing.

## Input usage

    input(type="imrelp" port="2514" tls="on" tls.priorityString="NONE:+COMP-DEFLATE")
