Set the desired value (which could be 0) in the +B<num_tickets> argument. Typically these functions should be called before the +start of the handshake. + +The default number of tickets is 2; the default number of tickets sent following +a resumption handshake is 1 but this cannot be changed using these functions. +The number of tickets following a resumption handshake can be reduced to 0 using +custom session ticket callbacks (see L<SSL_CTX_set_session_ticket_cb(3)>). + +Tickets are also issued on receipt of a post-handshake certificate from the +client following a request by the server using +L<SSL_verify_client_post_handshake(3)>. These new tickets will be associated +with the updated client identity (i.e. including their certificate and +verification status). The number of tickets issued will normally be the same as +was used for the initial handshake. If the initial handshake was a full +handshake then SSL_set_num_tickets() can be called again prior to calling +SSL_verify_client_post_handshake() to update the number of tickets that will be +sent. + +SSL_CTX_get_num_tickets() and SSL_get_num_tickets() return the number of +tickets set by a previous call to SSL_CTX_set_num_tickets() or +SSL_set_num_tickets(), or 2 if no such call has been made. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +SSL_CTX_set_num_tickets() and SSL_set_num_tickets() return 1 on success or 0 on +failure. + +SSL_CTX_get_num_tickets() and SSL_get_num_tickets() return the number of tickets +that have been previously set. + +=head1 HISTORY + +These functions were added in OpenSSL 1.1.1. + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +Copyright 2018 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
