   An update that has one optional fix can now be installed.

Description:


   This feature update provides a new Apache2 module "mod_nss"
   which  implements an https provider as a replacement of
   mod_ssl. (FATE#316419)

   mod_nss uses the Mozilla NSS libraries to provide SSL
   support and so is  able to supply TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 for
   your Apache web server.

   The package includes a README-SUSE.txt with detailed setup
   instructions.

   Also some glue documentation can be found in
   /etc/apache2/conf.d/mod_nss.conf and covers:

   * Simultaneous usage of mod_ssl and mod_nss
   * SNI concurrency
   * SUSE framework for Apache configuration, Listen
   directive
   * Module initialization.

Indications:

   Install this module to enable support for TLS 1.1 and 1.2.
