73.Fn SSL_version "const SSL *ssl"
74.Sh DESCRIPTION
75.Fn SSL_get_version
76returns the name of the protocol used for the connection
77.Fa ssl .
78.Pp
79.Fn SSL_is_dtls
80returns 1 if the connection is using DTLS, 0 if not.
81.Pp
82.Fn SSL_version
83returns an integer constant representing that protocol.
84.Pp
85These functions only return reliable results
86after the initial handshake has been completed.
