+Just set the `keylength` to a valid, supported, value.

+Valid values for the `keylength` parameter are:
 
-Just set the `keylength` parameter with a prefix `ec-`.
+1. **ec-256 (prime256v1, "ECDSA P-256", which is the default key type)**
+2. **ec-384 (secp384r1,  "ECDSA P-384")**
+3. **ec-521 (secp521r1,  "ECDSA P-521", which is not supported by Let's Encrypt yet.)**
+4. **2048   (RSA2048)**
+5. **3072   (RSA3072)**
+6. **4096   (RSA4096)**
 
 For example:
 
-### Single domain ECC certificate
+### Single domain with ECDSA P-384 certificate
 
 ```bash
-acme.sh --issue -w /home/wwwroot/example.com -d example.com --keylength ec-256
+acme.sh --issue -w /home/wwwroot/example.com -d example.com --keylength ec-384
 ```
 
-### SAN multi domain ECC certificate
+### SAN multi domain with RSA4096 certificate
 
 ```bash
-acme.sh --issue -w /home/wwwroot/example.com -d example.com -d www.example.com --keylength ec-256
+acme.sh --issue -w /home/wwwroot/example.com -d example.com -d www.example.com --keylength 4096

 # 11. Issue Wildcard certificates
 
 It's simple, just give a wildcard domain as the `-d` parameter.
