NAME

       SSL_get_default_timeout - get default session timeout value


LIBRARY

       libcrypto, -lcrypto


SYNOPSIS

        #include <openssl/ssl.h>

        long SSL_get_default_timeout(const SSL *ssl);


DESCRIPTION

       SSL_get_default_timeout() returns the default timeout value assigned to
       SSL_SESSION objects negotiated for the protocol valid for ssl.


NOTES

       Whenever a new session is negotiated, it is assigned a timeout value,
       after which it will not be accepted for session reuse. If the timeout
       value was not explicitly set using SSL_CTX_set_timeout(3), the hard-
       coded default timeout for the protocol will be used.

       SSL_get_default_timeout() return this hardcoded value, which is 300
       seconds for all currently supported protocols (SSLv2, SSLv3, and
       TLSv1).


RETURN VALUES

       See description.
