This option controls the client's use of channel binding. A setting
of <literal>require</literal> means that the connection must employ
channel binding, <literal>prefer</literal> means that the client will
choose channel binding if available, and <literal>disable</literal>
prevents the use of channel binding. The default
is <literal>prefer</literal> if
<productname>PostgreSQL</productname> is compiled with SSL support;
otherwise the default is <literal>disable</literal>.
</para>
<para>
Channel binding is a method for the server to authenticate itself to
the client. It is only supported over SSL connections
with <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> 11 or later servers using
the <literal>SCRAM</literal> authentication method.
