@tniessen tniessen commented Mar 6, 2023

Node.js has so far only supported user-defined DHE parameters and even recommended generating custom parameters. This change lets users set the dhparam option to 'auto' instead, in which case DHE parameters of sufficient strength are selected automatically (from a small set of well-known parameters). This has been recommended by OpenSSL for quite a while, and it makes it much easier for Node.js TLS servers to properly support DHE-based perfect forward secrecy.

This also updates the documentation to prioritize ECDHE over DHE, mostly because the former tends to be more efficient and is enabled by default.
