+            mod_tls is an alternative to <module>mod_ssl</module> 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 <module>mod_ssl</module>, 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 <module>mod_ssl</module> ones.

+        <p>
+            mod_tls supports TLS protocol version 1.2 and 1.3. Should there ever be
+            a version 1.4 and <code>rustls</code> supports it, it will be available as well.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            In mod_tls, you configure the <em>minimum</em> version to use, never the maximum:
+        </p>
+        <highlight language="config">
+TLSProtocol TLSv1.3+
+        </highlight>
+        <p>
+            This allows only version 1.3 and whatever may be its successor one day when talking
+            to your server or to a particular virtual host.
+    	</p>
+        </section>
+
+        <section><title>TLS Ciphers</title>
+        <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>
+        <highlight language="config">
+TLSCiphersPrefer ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384
+# or several
+TLSCiphersPrefer ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305
+        </highlight>
+        <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>
+        <highlight language="config">
+TLSCipherSuppress ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384
+        </highlight>
+        <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.
+        </p>
+        </section>
+
+        <section><title>Virtual Hosts</title>
+        <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 <module>mod_ssl</module>, 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.
+        </p>
+        <highlight language="config">

+&lt;/VirtualHost>
+        </highlight>
+        <p>
+            The example above show different TLS settings for virtual hosts on the
+            same port. This is supported. <code>example1</code> can be contacted via
+            all TLS versions and <code>example2</code> only allows v1.3 or later.

+
+        <section><title>ACME Certificates</title>
+        <p>
+            ACME certificates via <module>mod_md</module> are supported, just as
+            for <module>mod_ssl</module>. A minimal configuration:
+        </p>
+        <highlight language="config">
+Listen 443

+&lt;VirtualHost *:443>
+  ServerName example.net
+  ...
+&lt;/VirtualHost>
+        </highlight>
+        </section>
+
+        <section><title>OCSP Stapling</title>
+        <p>
+            mod_tls has no own implementation to retrieve OCSP information for
+            a certificate. However, it will use such for Stapling if it is provided
+            by <module>mod_md</module>. See <module>mod_md</module>'s documentation
+            on how to enable this.
+        </p>

+
+        <section><title>TLS Variables</title>
+        <p>
+            Via the directive <code>TLSOptions</code>, several variables
+            are placed into the environment of requests and can be inspected, for
+            example in a CGI script.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            The variable names are given by <module>mod_ssl</module>. Note that these
+            are only a subset of the many variables that mod_ssl exposes.
+    	</p>
+        <table>
+            <tr><th>Variable</th><th>TLSOption</th><th>Description</th></tr>
+            <tr><td>SSL_TLS_SNI</td><td>*</td><td>the server name indicator (SNI) send by the client</td></tr>

+            <tr><td>SSL_SERVER_CERT</td><td>ExportCertData</td><td>the selected server certificate in PEM format</td></tr>
+        </table>
+        <p>
+           The variable <code>SSL_SESSION_ID</code> is intentionally not supported as
+            it contains sensitive information.
+        </p>
+        </section>
+
+        <section><title>Client Certificates</title>
+        <p>
+            While <code>rustls</code> supports client certificates in principle, parts
+            of the infrastructure to make <em>use</em> of these in a server are not
+            offered.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            Among these features are: revocation lists, inspection of certificate
+            extensions and the matched issuer chain for OCSP validation. Without these,
+            revocation of client certificates is not possible. Offering authentication
+            without revocation is not considered an option.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            Work will continue on this and client certificate support may become
+            available in a future release.

+            <p>
+                TLSOptions is analog to `SSLOptions` in <module>mod_ssl</module>.
+                It can be set per directory/location and `option` can be:
+            </p>
+            <ul>
+                <li>`StdEnvVars`: adds more variables to the requests environment,
+                    as forwarded for example to CGI processing and other applications.
+                </li>
+                <li>`ExportCertData`: adds certificate related variables to the request environment.
+                </li>
+                <li>`Defaults`: resets all options to their default values.</li>
+            </ul>
+            <p>
+                Adding variables to a request environment adds overhead, especially
+                when certificates need to be inspected and fields extracted.
+                Therefore most variables are not set by default.
+            </p>
+            <p>
+                You can configure `TLSOptions` per location or generally on a
+                server/virtual host. Prefixing an option with `-` disables this
+                option while leaving others unchanged.
+                A `+` prefix is the same as writing the option without one.
+            </p>
+            <p>
+                The `Defaults` value can be used to reset any options that are
+                inherited from other locations or the virtual host/server.
