Return the session this client wants to resume, if any. Note that the peer's certificate chain for the session (if any) may need to be periodically revalidated.

Returns:A TlsSession representing the resumable session to be used for this connection, or null to use a new session.

Return the ProtocolVersion to use for the TLSPlaintext.version field prior to receiving the server version. NOTE: This method is not called for DTLS.

See RFC 5246 E.1.: "TLS clients that wish to negotiate with older servers MAY send any value {03,XX} as the record layer version number. Typical values would be {03,00}, the lowest version number supported by the client, and the value of ClientHello.client_version. No single value will guarantee interoperability with all old servers, but this is a complex topic beyond the scope of this document."

Returns:The ProtocolVersion to use.

RFC 5077 3.3. NewSessionTicket Handshake Message

This method will be called (only) when a NewSessionTicket handshake message is received. The ticket is opaque to the client and clients MUST NOT examine the ticket under the assumption that it complies with e.g. RFC 5077 4. Recommended Ticket Construction.

Params:
  • newSessionTicket – The ticket.
