+<h3>Summary</h3>
+
+        <p>
+            mod_tls is an alternative to <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code> for providing https to a server.
+            It's feature set is a subset, described in more detail below. It can
+            be used as a companion to <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code>, e.g. both modules can be loaded at
+            the same time.
+        </p><p>
+            mod_tls, being written in C, used the Rust implementation of TLS named
+            <a href="https://github.com/rustls/rustls">rustls</a> via its C interface
+            <a href="https://github.com/rustls/rustls-ffi">rustls-ffi</a>. This gives
+            <em>memory safe</em> cryptography and protocol handling at comparable
+            performance.
+        </p><p>
+            It can be configured for frontend and backend connections. The configuration
+            directive have been kept mostly similar to <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code> ones.

+            mod_tls supports TLS protocol version 1.2 and 1.3. Should there ever be

+<h2>TLS Ciphers</h2>
+        <p>
+            The list of TLS ciphers supported in the <code>rustls</code> library,
+            can be found <a href="https://docs.rs/rustls/">here</a>. All TLS v1.3
+            ciphers are supported. For TLS v1.2, only ciphers that rustls considers
+            secure are available.
+        </p><p>
+            mod_tls supports the following names for TLS ciphers:
+        </p>
+        <ol>
+            <li>
+                The <a href="https://www.iana.org/assignments/tls-parameters/tls-parameters.xhtml#tls-parameters-4">IANA assigned name</a>
+                which uses `_` to separate parts. Example: <code>TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384</code>
+            </li>
+            <li>
+                The OpenSSL name, using `-` as separator (for 1.2). Example: <code>ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384</code>.
+                Such names often appear in documentation. `mod_tls` defines them for all TLS v1.2 ciphers.
+                For TLS v1.3 ciphers, names starting with <code>TLS13_</code> are also supported.
+            </li>
+            <li>
+                The <a href="https://www.iana.org/assignments/tls-parameters/tls-parameters.xhtml#tls-parameters-4">IANA assigned identifier</a>,
+                which is a 16-bit numeric value. Example: <code>0xc024</code>.
+                You can use this in configurations as <code>TLS_CIPHER_0xc024</code>.
+            </li>
+        </ol>
+        <p>
+            You can configure a preference for ciphers, which means they will be used
+            for clients that support them. If you do not configure a preference, <code>rustls</code>
+            will use the one that it considers best. This is recommended.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            Should you nevertheless have the need to prefer one cipher over another, you
+            may configure it like this:
+        </p>
+        <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">TLSCiphersPrefer ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384
+# or several
+TLSCiphersPrefer ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305</pre>
+
+        <p>
+            If you name a cipher that is unknown, the configuration will fail.
+            If you name a cipher is not supported by <code>rustls</code> (or no
+            longer supported in an updated version of <code>rustls</code> for security
+            reasons), mod_tls will log a <code>WARNING</code>, but continue to work.
+    	</p>
+        <p>
+            A similar mechanism exists, if you want to disable a particular cipher:
+        </p>
+        <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">TLSCipherSuppress ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384</pre>
+
+        <p>
+            A suppressed cipher will not longer be used.
+            If you name a cipher that is unknown, the configuration will fail.
+            If you name a cipher is not supported by <code>rustls</code> (or no
+            longer supported in an updated version of <code>rustls</code> for security
+            reasons), mod_tls will log a <code>WARNING</code>, but continue to work.

+<h2>Virtual Hosts</h2>
+        <p>
+            mod_tls uses the SNI (Server Name Indicator) to select one of the
+            configured virtual hosts that match the port being served. Should
+            the client not provide an SNI, the <em>first</em> configured
+            virtual host will be selected. If the client <em>does</em> provide
+            an SNI (as all today's clients do), it <em>must</em> match one
+            virtual host (<code>ServerName</code> or <code>ServerAlias</code>)
+            or the connection will fail.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            As with <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code>, you may specify ciphers and protocol
+            versions for the base server (global) and/or individual virtual hosts
+            that are selected via SNI by the client.

+<h2>Client Certificates</h2>
+        <p>
+            While <code>rustls</code> supports client certificates in principle, parts

+        <p>
+            Among these features are: revocation lists, inspection of certificate

+            without revocation is not considered an option.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            Work will continue on this and client certificate support may become
