Question

?Is the Server Name Identification (SNI) extension of the TLS protocol supported by the Passive Capture Application (PCA)?

Answer

It appears that the SNI extension is ignored by the PCA as it is not an active part of the SSL transaction.? We do not do anything with most of the TLS extensions.? The only TLS extension we look at is the session ticket extension required for the SSL resumption process.

Applies to version(s): all the PCA builds.
