Long: tlsv1.2
Help: Use TLSv1.2 or greater
Protocols: TLS
Added: 7.34.0
Category: tls
---
Forces curl to use TLS version 1.2 or later when connecting to a remote TLS server.

In old versions of curl this option was documented to allow _only_ TLS 1.2,
but behavior was inconsistent depending on the TLS library. Use --tls-max if
you want to set a maximum TLS version.

openssl: make the requested TLS version the minimum wanted The code treated the set version as the exact version to require in the TLS handshake, which is not what other TLS backends do and probably not what most people expect either.

docs: Explain behavior change in --tlsv1. options since 7.54 Since 7.54 --tlsv1. options use the specified version or later, however older versions of curl documented it as using just the specified version which may or may not have happened depending on the TLS library. Document this discrepancy to allay confusion for users familiar with the old documentation that expect just the specified version.
