My thought was that if the server has SHOULD fail, it could do something like never fail on TLS1.1 and higher (or TLS1.2 when TLS1.3 is out). Otherwise one must accept that servers implementing TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV will contribute to higher number of failed handshakes. > --dkg > > > > _______________________________________________ > TLS mailing list > TLS@ietf.org > https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls >
