+== NAME
+
+nng_tls_config_alloc - allocate TLS configuration object
+
+== SYNOPSIS
+
+[source, c]
+-----------
+#include <nng/nng.h>
+
+typedef enum nng_tls_mode {
+ NNG_TLS_MODE_CLIENT,
+ NNG_TLS_MODE_SERVER
+} nng_tls_mode;
+
+int nng_tls_config_alloc(nni_tls_config **cfgp, nng_tls_mode mode);
+-----------
+
+== DESCRIPTION
+
+The `nng_tls_config_alloc()` function creates a newly initialized
+https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5246[Transport Layer Security])
+configuration object, and stores a pointer to it in the value pointed
+to by _cfgp_.
+
+This object is initialized for use when acting as either a
+client (`NNG_TLS_MODE_CLIENT`) or as a server (`NNG_TLS_MODE_SERVER`),
+depending on the value of _mode_.
+
+A TLS object can be further modified by functions that set the security
+keys used, peeer certificates, protocol policies, and so forth.
+
+A single TLS configuration object can be used with multiple TLS streams
+or services. The underlying system uses reference counting to ensure
+that object is not inadvertently freed while in use.
+
+Also note that a TLS configuration object becomes "read-only" after it
+is first used with a service. After this points, attempts to apply
+further changes to the configuration will result in `NNG_EBUSY`.
+
+
+== RETURN VALUES
+
+This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.
+
+== ERRORS
+
+`NNG_ENOMEM`:: Insufficient memory is available.
+`NNG_EINVAL`:: An invalid _mode_ was specified.
