-I,  --source-address IP-address

Specify source IP address.

-t,  --timeout seconds

Specify timeout. Valid range: 1-30 seconds (default: 30)

-k,  --key item-key

Specify key of item to retrieve value for.

-P,  --protocol value

Protocol used to communicate with agent. Values:

auto

connect using JSON protocol, fallback and retry with plaintext protocol (default)

json

connect using JSON protocol

plaintext

connect using plaintext protocol where just item key is sent (6.4.x and older releases)

--tls-connect value

How to connect to agent. Values:

unencrypted

connect without encryption (default)

psk

connect using TLS and a pre-shared key

cert

connect using TLS and a certificate

--tls-ca-file CA-file

Full pathname of a file containing the top-level CA(s) certificates for peer certificate verification.

--tls-psk-identity PSK-identity

PSK-identity string.

--tls-psk-file PSK-file

Full pathname of a file containing the pre-shared key.

--tls-cipher13 cipher-string

Cipher string for OpenSSL 1.1.1 or newer for TLS 1.3. Override the default ciphersuite selection criteria. This option is not available if OpenSSL version is less than 1.1.1.

--tls-cipher cipher-string

GnuTLS priority string (for TLS 1.2 and up) or OpenSSL cipher string (only for TLS 1.2). Override the default ciphersuite selection criteria.
