Hi everyone,
I'm trying to upgrade an HTTP connection to a secure HTTPS connection through TLS over the same TCP connection.
I'm not trying to use the Server Name Indication method, nor am I using the SubjectAltName route outlined in Wikipedia. (Neither method can be employed well if multiple hosts are sharing the same connection.)
[
en.wikipedia.org...]
(The main issue is outlined in the Name-Based section of Virtual Hosting.)
I'm actually trying to follow up with the strategies in this RFC:
[
ietf.org...]
However, I can't seem to find more information on it? Has anyone had a similar problem? How did you handle it?
To sum up, I'm trying to initialize TLS on an HTTP connection to upgrade to a secure connection. The RFC mentioned outlines a strategy, but I haven't found any further information on this, nor have I found any instances where it's been carried out.
Any info/advice would be greatly appreciated!
