<p>This extension provides TCL script access to secure socket communications

binding to <a href="https://www.openssl.org/">OpenSSL</a>, utilizing the

These sockets behave exactly the same as channels created using the built-in

By default, a client TLS connection does NOT validate the server certificate
<p>By default, a client TLS connection does <em>NOT</em> validate the server certificate

realistic deployment you would specify your own callback scripts on each TLS
channel using the <b class="option">-command</b>, <b class="option">-password</b>, and
<b class="option">-validate_command</b> options.</p>
</p>
<p>
The default behavior when the <strong>-command</strong> and <strong>-validate_command</strong>
options are not specified is for TLS to process the associated library callbacks
internally. The default behavior when the <strong>-password</strong> option is not
specified is for TLS to process the associated library callbacks by attempting
to call <strong>tls::password</strong>.
The difference between these two behaviors is a consequence of maintaining
compatibility with earlier implementations.
