NAME
       SSLgetdefaulttimeout - get default session timeout value

SYNOPSIS
        #include 

        long SSLgetdefaulttimeout(const SSL *ssl);

DESCRIPTION
       SSLgetdefaulttimeout() returns the default timeout value assigned to
       SSLSESSION objects negotiated for the protocol valid for ssssll.

NNOOTTEESS
       Whenever a new session is negotiated, it is assigned a timeout value,
       after which it will not be accepted for session reuse. If the timeout
       value was not explicitly set using SSLCTXsettimeout(3), the
       hardcoded default timeout for the protocol will be used.

       SSLgetdefaulttimeout() return this hardcoded value, which is 300
       seconds for all currently supported protocols (SSLv2, SSLv3, and
       TLSv1).

RETURN VALUES
       See description.
