Optional update for apache2-mod_nss
SUSE Optional Update: Optional update for apache2-mod_nss
This feature update provides a new Apache2 module "mod_nss"
which implements an https provider as a replacement of
mod_ssl. (FATE#316419)
mod_nss uses the Mozilla NSS libraries to provide SSL
support and so is able to supply TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 for
your Apache web server.
The package includes a README-SUSE.txt with detailed setup
instructions.
Also some glue documentation can be found in
/etc/apache2/conf.d/mod_nss.conf and covers:
* Simultaneous usage of mod_ssl and mod_nss
* SNI concurrency
* SUSE framework for Apache configuration, Listen
directive
* Module initialization.
