Entirely disables the use of HTTP.
406+
Disable the use of HTTP to fetch CRLs. This also disables OCSP
407+
requests as a side-effect. HTTP access to keyservers and to other
408+
files will still work. This is a legacy option from a time before CRL
409+
distribution points became common; it is better to use the explicit
410+
option @option{--ignore-http-dp} if the goal is to avoid fetching CRLs
411+
via HTTP.
