== Description

[source,erlang]
----
set_transport_options(Ref       :: ranch:ref(),

----

Set the transport options.

Changes to the following options will take effect...

* immediately:
** `max_connections`
** `handshake_timeout`
** `shutdown`
* only after the listener has been suspended and resumed:
** `num_acceptors`
** `num_listen_sockets`
** `socket_opts`
* only when the entire listener is restarted:
** `connection_type`
** `num_conns_sups`
** `logger`

== Arguments

Ref::

The listener name.

TransOpts::

The new transport options.

== Return value

The atom `ok` is returned on success.

An error tuple is returned on failure, for example if the given
transport options contain invalid values.

== Changelog

* *2.0*: The restriction that the listener must be suspended
         has been removed.
* *2.0*: The `TransOpts` argument must no longer contain
         Ranch-specific options if given as a list. Use a map.
