This option is based on deprecated functions and is only available when
socat() was build with option tt(--with-openssl-method).
Use option link(min-proto-version)(OPTION_OPENSSL_MIN_PROTO_VERSION)
and maybe link(max-proto-version)(OPTION_OPENSSL_MAX_PROTO_VERSION)

label(OPTION_OPENSSL_MIN_PROTO_VERSION)dit(bf(tt(min-proto-version)))
This option tells OpenSSL to use this or a later SSL/TLS protocol version
and refuses to accept a lower/older protocol. Valid syntax is:
startdit()
dit(tt(SSL2)) Select SSL protocol version 2.
dit(tt(SSL3)) Select SSL protocol version 3.
dit(tt(TLS1)) dit(tt(TLS1.0)) Select TLS protocol version 1.
dit(tt(TLS1.1)) Select TLS protocol version 1.1.
dit(tt(TLS1.2)) Select TLS protocol version 1.2.
dit(tt(TLS1.3)) Select TLS protocol version 1.3.
enddit()
label(OPTION_OPENSSL_MAX_PROTO_VERSION)dit(bf(tt(openssl-max-proto-version)))
This option is similar to link(min-proto-version)(OPTION_OPENSSL_MIN_PROTO_VERSION),
however, it disallows use of a higher protocol version. Useful for testing
the peer.
label(OPTION_OPENSSL_VERIFY)dit(bf(tt(verify=<bool>)))
Controls check of the peer's certificate. Default is 1 (true). Disabling
verify might open your socket for everyone, making the encryption useless!
