~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. container::

   The CVS tag for the NSS 3.11.10 release is NSS_3_11_10_RTM. NSS 3.11.10 requires `NSPR
   4.7.1 <https://www.mozilla.org/projects/nspr/release-notes/nspr471.html>`__.
   See the `Documentation <#docs>`__ section for the build instructions.
   NSS 3.11.10 source and binary distributions are also available on ftp.mozilla.org for secure
   HTTPS download:

   -  Source tarballs:
      https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/security/nss/releases/NSS_3_11_10_RTM/src/.
   -  Binary distributions:
      https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/security/nss/releases/NSS_3_11_10_RTM/. Both debug and
      optimized builds are provided. Go to the subdirectory for your platform, DBG (debug) or OPT
      (optimized), to get the tar.gz or zip file. The tar.gz or zip file expands to an nss-3.11.10
      directory containing three subdirectories:

      -  include - NSS header files
      -  lib - NSS shared libraries
      -  bin - `NSS Tools <https://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/tools/>`__ and test
         programs

   You also need to download the NSPR 4.7.1 binary distributions to get the NSPR 4.7.1 header files
   and shared libraries, which NSS 3.11.10 requires. NSPR 4.7.1 binary distributions are in
   https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/nspr/releases/v4.7.1/.

`Documentation <#documentation>`__
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. container::

   For a list of the primary NSS documentation pages on mozilla.org, see `NSS
   Documentation <../index.html#Documentation>`__. New and revised documents available since the
   release of NSS 3.9 include the following:

   -  `Build Instructions for NSS 3.11.4 and above <../nss-3.11.4/nss-3.11.4-build.html>`__


`Compatibility <#compatibility>`__
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. container::

   NSS 3.11.10 shared libraries are backward compatible with all older NSS 3.x shared libraries. A
   program linked with older NSS 3.x shared libraries will work with NSS 3.11.10 shared libraries
   without recompiling or relinking.  Furthermore, applications that restrict their use of NSS APIs
   to the functions listed in `NSS Public Functions <../ref/nssfunctions.html>`__ will remain
   compatible with future versions of the NSS shared libraries.


`Feedback <#feedback>`__
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. container::

   Bugs discovered should be reported by filing a bug report with `mozilla.org
   Bugzilla <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/>`__ (product NSS).
