[users@httpd] does apache 2.2 or latest support TLS 1.1

Hi,
i'm confused!
i read as part of the features list for Apache 2.2
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html
that
SSL_PROTOCOL string The SSL protocol version (SSLv2, SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1,
TLSv1.2)


however when i run the app using apache 2.2 i get following:
[Thu Nov 08 13:38:54 2012] [notice] Apache/2.2.10 (Unix) DAV/2
mod_ssl/2.2.10 OpenSSL/0.9.7d mod_jk/1.2.26 configured -- resuming normal
operations

meaning i'm using apache 2.2 but with openssl 0.9 whcih according to what i
read only supports upto TLSv1.0 and not above. to get TLS 1.1 apparently i
need open ssl 1.0.1.
https://community.qualys.com/thread/2013

problem 1 - does apache 2.2 or 2.4 support TLS 1.1 or not? - documentation
says it does via the mod ssl.

if yes then how do i get TLS1.1 working? i would appreaciate some
direction, app only way is to recompile with openssl 1.0 and that 2.2 does
not support TLSv1.1,

thanks

Sure you can, this is how I compiled openssl on one redhat server couple of
weeks ago:
$ ./config --prefix=/usr/local *--openssldir=/usr/local/ssl* enable-tlsext
shared
$ sudo make && sudo make install

so you can use different --openssldir every time you compile a new version,
ie --openssldir=/usr/local/openssl-1.0.1c etc. and have several versions in
parallel.

Then compiled apache with the following command:

$ *LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib64 CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include* ./configure
--prefix=/usr/local/apache2 --with-mpm=worker --with-included-apr
--enable-info --enable-proxy --enable-proxy-connect --enable-proxy-ftp
--enable-proxy-http --enable-proxy-balancer --enable-rewrite
--enable-headers --enable-cache --enable-mem-cache --enable-disk-cache
--enable-expires --enable-mods-shared=all --enable-dav
--enable-deflate *--enable-ssl=shared
--with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl*

to point apache to the 1.0.1c openssl and use that one in runtime.

Thanks Igor,
can i have 2 open ssl installations on same machine?
i have apache 2.2 using open ssl 0.9 serving current application requests.
i have requriment to transfer files over TLS1.1, hence need for open ssl
1.0.1.  seems an over kill to have a second webserver instance just to
transfer files, but i see it as only solution.

Files can be done via ftps using something like mina apache ftp server -
probably same problem there to interms of open SSL 0.9.

Install open ssl 1.0.1 and recompile apache to use that one.
