- default cipher list
- session-id cache
- certificate cache
- default session-id timeout period
- New session-id callback
- Required session-id callback

- Informational callback
- Callback that is set, overrides the SSLeay X509 certificate
- verification
- The default Certificate/Private Key pair

-A connection is made by using SSL_connect or SSL_accept.
-When non-blocking IO is being used, there are functions that can be used
-to determin where and why the SSL_connect or SSL_accept did not complete.
