<p>By default OpenSSL will load a configuration file when it is first used. This will set up various configuration settings within the default library context. Applications that create their own library contexts may optionally configure them with a config file using the <a href="../man3/OSSL_LIB_CTX_load_config.html">OSSL_LIB_CTX_load_config(3)</a> function.</p>

<p>The configuration file can be used to automatically load providers and set up default property query strings
