Hi OpenSSL,

I am using group 19 which is ECDH elliptic curve group (NID_X9_62_prime256v1) 
and is giving 32 bytes/256 bit of shared secret key.

I want to use it to work with AES-128 CBC encryption algorithm. As the key 
length generated by ECDH is 32 bytes, is there any way to generate the key 
length of 16 bytes/128 bit with group 19 ECDH algorithm?

On one of the article, it is mentioned that encryption or authentication 
algorithms with a 128-bit key to be used for Diffie-Hellman groups 5, 14, 19, 
20 or 24.

Please let me know if group 19 can generate 128 bit key length by any means.

Regards,
Vishal Kevat
