Re: [TLS] TLS 1.1 and static DH



Well, since at least we went through the effort of implementing them it would be nice to test them out too... OTOH, if no one else implements or uses them, they may be of little use in the real world. In any case, we are interested to get through testing, preferably both client and server side.

The Certicom SSL-C product does contain implementations of static DH ciphersuites. We don't currently have a public server available for testing this implementation.
If there is enough interest we can add these ciphersuites to tls.secg.org
