# `--curves`

Set specific curves to use during SSL session establishment according to RFC
8422, 5.1. Multiple algorithms can be provided by separating them with `:`
(e.g. `X25519:P-521`). The parameter is available identically in the OpenSSL
`s_client` and `s_server` utilities.

--curves allows a OpenSSL powered curl to make SSL-connections with exactly
the (EC) curve requested by the client, avoiding nontransparent client/server
negotiations.

If this option is set, the default curves list built into OpenSSL are ignored.
