# Check The Installed OpenSSL Version
|
|
|
|
Typically with command line tools, I can use a `--version` or `-v` flag with
|
|
the command to get it to output the current version. This is not the case with
|
|
`openssl`.
|
|
|
|
When I do this:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ openssl --version
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
I get an Invalid Command message and then a bunch of subcommands are displayed.
|
|
|
|
One of those subcommands listed under _Standard Commands_ is the `version`
|
|
command. This is what I can use to list the version.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ openssl version -v
|
|
LibreSSL 2.8.3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See `man openssl` for more details.
