SSL_get_default_timeout(const

DESCRIPTION
SSL_get_default_timeout()
returns the default timeout value assigned to
SSL_SESSION objects negotiated for the protocol valid
for ssl.
Whenever a new session is negotiated, it is assigned a timeout value, after which it will not be accepted for session reuse. If the timeout value was not explicitly set using SSL_CTX_set_timeout(3), the hardcoded default timeout for the protocol will be used.
SSL_get_default_timeout()
return this hardcoded value, which is 300 seconds for all currently
supported protocols (SSLv2, SSLv3, and TLSv1).
