     SSL_get_default_timeout(3)Aug/2001 (0.9.7e)get_default_timeout(3)


     NAME
          SSL_get_default_timeout - get default session timeout value

     SYNOPSIS
           #include <openssl/ssl.h>

           long SSL_get_default_timeout(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 hardcoded 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.
