 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
-Since the introduction of the ENGINE API, the recommended way of controlling
-default implementations is by using the ENGINE API functions. The default
-B<RAND_METHOD>, as set by RAND_set_rand_method() and returned by
-RAND_get_rand_method(), is only used if no ENGINE has been set as the default
-"rand" implementation. Hence, these two functions are no longer the recommened
-way to control defaults.
-
-If an alternative B<RAND_METHOD> implementation is being used (either set
-directly or as provided by an ENGINE module), then it is entirely responsible
-for the generation and management of a cryptographically secure PRNG stream. The
-mechanisms described below relate solely to the software PRNG implementation
-built in to OpenSSL and used by default.
-
-These functions implement a cryptographically secure pseudo-random
-number generator (PRNG). It is used by other library functions for
-example to generate random keys, and applications can use it when they
+These functions give access to the systems cryptographically secure
+pseudo-random number generator (PRNG). It is used by other library functions
+for example to generate random keys, and applications can use it when they
 need randomness.
 
-A cryptographic PRNG must be seeded with unpredictable data such as
-mouse movements or keys pressed at random by the user. This is
-described in L<RAND_add(3)|RAND_add(3)>. Its state can be saved in a seed file
-(see L<RAND_load_file(3)|RAND_load_file(3)>) to avoid having to go through the
-seeding process whenever the application is started.
-
 L<RAND_bytes(3)|RAND_bytes(3)> describes how to obtain random data from the
 PRNG.
