A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Transport Layer Security Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Transport Layer Security (TLS) Extensions
Author(s) : S. Blake-Wilson et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-tls-extensions-06.txt
Pages : 26
Date : 2003-2-10
This document describes extensions that may be used to add
functionality to TLS. It provides both generic extension mechanisms
for the TLS handshake client and server hellos, and specific
extensions using these generic mechanisms.
The extensions may be used by TLS clients and servers. The extensions
are backwards compatible - communication is possible between TLS 1.0
clients that support the extensions and TLS 1.0 servers that do not
support the extensions, and vice versa.
This document is based on discussions within the TLS working group
and within the WAP security group.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-tls-extensions-06.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
