Hello and welcome,

it all boils down to the SSL/TLS library used. Since most routers and
embedded devices have limited space, firmware designer should choose one
such library and stick to it.

Leaving out openwisp-config-nossl which may be good only for development,
when choosing between the remaining 3 it's just a matter of asking "which
SSL/TLS library do we want to use?".

If you don't suffer for extreme space limitations and you want to go for
the most common one, go for openssl.

Best regards
Federico
