.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Fn SSL_CTX_set_max_send_fragment
and
.Fn SSL_set_max_send_fragment
set the
.Sy max_send_fragment
parameter for SSL_CTX and SSL objects respectively.
This value restricts the amount of plaintext bytes that will be sent in
any one SSL/TLS record.
By default its value is SSL3_RT_MAX_PLAIN_LENGTH (16384).
These functions will only accept a value in the range 512 -
SSL3_RT_MAX_PLAIN_LENGTH.
.Pp
These functions are implemented using macros.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
These functions return 1 on success or 0 on failure.

.Sh HISTORY
.Fn SSL_CTX_set_max_send_fragment
and
.Fn SSL_set_max_send_fragment
first appeared in OpenSSL 1.0.0 and have been available since
.Ox 4.9 .
