Named Curve or Explicit

This type acts as a boolean as to whether the EcGroup is named or explicit.

Implementations

Curve defined using polynomial parameters

Most applications use a named EC_GROUP curve, however, support is included to explicitly define the curve used to calculate keys This information would need to be known by both endpoint to make communication effective.

OPENSSL_EC_EXPLICIT_CURVE, but that was only added in 1.1. Man page documents that 0 can be used in older versions.

Standard Curves

Curves that make up the typical encryption use cases. The collection of curves are well known but extensible.
