This book seems to be  interesting, but I am student and I have to save
money...
Yes I know that DH is subject to a MITM attack. I make DH key exchange in a
secure channel with authenticated peer.
How to serialized dh->pub_key ? I know that i2d_DHparams(const_dh, &dhbuf);
serialize dh structure pointed by const_dh but I did not find a function to
serialize just dh->pub_key
