@deftypefun {int} {gnutls_server_name_set} (gnutls_session_t @var{session}, gnutls_server_name_type_t @var{type}, const void * @var{name}, size_t @var{name_length})
@var{session}: is a @code{gnutls_session_t}  structure.

@var{type}: specifies the indicator type

@var{name}: is a string that contains the server name.

@var{name_length}: holds the length of name

This function is to be used by clients that want to inform (via a
TLS extension mechanism) the server of the name they connected to.
This should be used by clients that connect to servers that do
virtual hosting.

The value of  @code{name} depends on the  @code{type} type.  In case of
@code{GNUTLS_NAME_DNS} , an ASCII (0)-terminated domain name string,
without the trailing dot, is expected.  IPv4 or IPv6 addresses are
not permitted.

@strong{Returns:} On success, @code{GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS}  (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned.
