It's "also". The idea being that if you aren't sure if the server supports the new thing, you might offer the old thing in addition to the new thing in the hopes that if the new thing isn't supported, the old thing might be. > If so, what would be the behaviour of a server that supports both > "max_fragment_length" and "record_size_limit" in that situation? If you don't include record_size_limit, you can't use it. If the client includes both, then the text from the preceding paragraph applies: "A server that supports the record_size_limit extension MUST ignore a max_fragment_length that appears in a ClientHello if both extensions appear." _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
