"Minimum number of bits to be used in Diffie-Hellman key exchange.
During a client-server handshake, if the server sends a prime
with fewer than this number of bits, the handshake will fail.
;; Several mail servers send fewer bits than the GnuTLS default.
;; Currently, 256 appears to be a reasonable choice (Bug#11267).
"Minimum number of prime bits accepted by GnuTLS for key exchange.
During a Diffie-Hellman handshake, if the server sends a prime
number with fewer than this number of bits, the handshake is
rejected. \(The smaller the prime number, the less secure the
key exchange is against man-in-the-middle attacks.)
A value of nil says to use the default GnuTLS value."
