Abstract

This document defines a new, 'fast-track' handshake mechanism for TLS. A fast-track client caches a server's public parameters and negotiated parameters in the course of an initial, enabling handshake; these need not be resent on subsequent ones. The new mechanism reduces both network traffic and flows, and requires no additional server state.
