H4: TLSEphemeralDHParamFile <filename>
H4: TLSDHParamFile <filename>
This directive specifies the file that contains parameters for
Diffie-Hellman ephemeral key exchange. This is required in order
to use a DSA certificate on the server side (i.e.
{{EX:TLSCertificateKeyFile}} points to a DSA key). Multiple sets
of parameters can be included in the file; all of them will be
processed. Parameters can be generated using the following command
to use DHE-based cipher suites, including all DSA-based suites (i.e.
{{EX:TLSCertificateKeyFile}} points to a DSA key), and RSA when the 'key
encipherment' key usage is not specified in the certificate. Parameters can be
generated using the following command
> openssl dhparam [-dsaparam] -out <filename> <numbits>
or
> certtool --generate-dh-params --bits <numbits> --outfile <filename>
