[jira] Commented: (DIRMINA-26) StartTLS

["Vinod Panicker (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRMINA-26?page=comments#action_65595 ]
     
Vinod Panicker commented on DIRMINA-26:
---------------------------------------

This is a completely protocol specific feature.  STARTTLS has also become synonymous with "enabling TLS over an existing IP connection".

STARTTLS is used by SMTP to do the above.  XMPP also requires that TLS be enabled over an existing IP connection, but it doesnt refer to it as STARTTLS.

The current SSLFilter already has support for TLS and with the Filter now supporting existing sessions, this is basically a non-issue.

I'd recommend closing this issue.
