I've been looking at the tomcatjss' JSSSocketFactory to see how OCSP is
initialized on server startup using manager.configureOCSP(true,
ocspResponderURL,ocspResponderCertNickname);

Presumably in the context of tomcatjss, the OCSP is intended for revocation
checking external clients connecting to the tomcat server.

In the case where the tomcat server (Server-A) is a TLS client and the same
socket implantation is used to connect to another TLS Server (Server-B),
will OCSP be invoked to revocation check the server certificate of
Server-B?  Or does the manager.configureOCSP() only apply in the case where
Server-A is a server and not a client?

Thanks
