Each of these data channels may be a file, +pipe, device (serial line etc. or a pseudo terminal), a socket (UNIX, +IP4, IP6 - raw, UDP, TCP), an SSL socket, proxy CONNECT connection, +a file descriptor (stdin etc.), the GNU line editor (readline), +a program, or a combination of two of these. These modes include +generation of "listening" sockets, named pipes, and pseudo terminals. + +socat can use the OpenSSL FIPS module, if it is installed on your system. + +Upon install, you may want to read the SECURITY file in the documentation +directory. |
