Well, actually, it might be possible to compress everything except ClientHello headers. One should still avoid the 15 and 16 values (and presumably also 17) if one does. E.g.: For ClientHello: 16 03 vv xx xx For ServerHello: 3F+xx xx For Alert on *Hello: 3E xx (Alerts are short) For encrypted message: 80|xx xx (If one wanted to get fancy, one could even try to negotiate this via vv byte (a'la: "record version: TLS 1.3"). -Ilari _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list TLS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/tls
