Does Safari on iPad support SNI (Server Name Indication)

Hi,
I am testing name-based virtual host with apache 2.2 over SSL and noticed that this is only supported using SNI (server name indication). I have updated openSSL to include the SNI extensions on the apache but the client browser is also required to support this. I wanted to know if there is any indication as to when SNI will be supported by the Safari browser on iPad and/or if anyone else has experienced this issue.
I know of 1 additional work around is to use wildcard certs but I am not to keen on using those unless I really have to.
I verified that this is not support by hitting the site: https://sni.volex.ch from the iPad safari browser - it fails. However, using Opera on iPad worked.
Thanks

From what I understand SNI is largely reliant on client support. It is just an extension of the TLS SSL protocol. One of our Escalation Engineers wrote up a pretty good post explaining SNI.

"SNI is an extension to the TLS SSL protocol that allows the client to include the Hostname the client is connecting to in the SSL Client Hello. A server can then use the SNI header to determine which certificate to serve to the client. A key benefit
of SNI is that is allows a server to host multiple certificates on the same IP/port pair instead of needing an IP per certificate (assuming you are using port 443)."
A few questions I would have is what client and browser combination have you attempted on this? Also, are you using a wildcard certificate on your Web Listener? Have you taken network traces to see if client is sending SNI? Ian does a good job of explaining
how to do that in his blog post.

  • How to disable server name indication

    I want to turn off SNI (server name indication) but I didn't find the right option. I could only disable TLS and use SSL to achieve this. I set the value of "security.tls.version.max" to 0.
    I am looking for a way to have TLS while disabling server name indication extension.

    Under Tools → Options → Advanced → Encryption, make sure you have "Use TLS 1.0" enabled. This is off by default in older versions of Firefox.

  • Does pages on ipad support german spelling/correction ?

    does pages on ipad support german spelling/correction?

    I can't check this the moment, but normally spelling correction is determined by the keyboard layout you are using, rather than the localization of the app. So you should be able to get german spelling correction even if Pages is running in English.

  • Which codecs does iMovie for iPad support?

    I have videos from a Canon Powershot camera which are in 1280 × 720, H.264, Linear PCM. I can import these videos to iMovie on iPad but when I open iMovie it does not show the files.
    I have also tried to import the videos via iTunes Movie Sync. I can play the video on the iPad but can not import it to a new project in iMovie.
    Which codecs does iMovie for iPad support? If I can play the movie on iPad, it should be possible to edit it?
    Where do I find the codecs supported by iMovie for iPad?

    iMovie was made to edit video shot on iOS devices; there is no support list, it was made to edit iOS video.
    This allows iMovie to be stable (or should make it stable as the case may be).
    That said, you are importing the video wrong, and may be in luck with your video.
    The File sharing pane is just for importing iMovieiOS projects.
    iMovie cannot edit video in the Movies app.
    iMovie edits video that can be seen in the photos app.
    So you need to import it via the photos tab, as you would photos.
    The other option is using the camera connect kit.
    If you can see the video in the Photos app, it is highly likely that you can edit it.
    But be warned that using non-iOS sourced video can make iMovie very buggy and flakey.
    Avid for iPad is made to edit more formats and might be a better choice if you have trouble.

  • Does the New iPad support SIRI as iPhone 4s?

    Does the New iPad support SIRI as iPhone 4s?
    I saw mic icon on left side of space is look like siri feature but i don't know how to setting.
    anyone can help for this?

    That would not be Siri, that would be dictation. When you want to say something rather than type it, tap that button and say want you want. All of your words will be changed into text. It's very similar to dragon dictation. Siri currently is just an iPhone 4s thing.

  • Why does Safari on iPad drop content of tabs?

    Aaaaarrrrghhhh!

    Try this:
    Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.

  • Does Safari plan on supporting Yahoo email?

    Everytime I try and load Yahoo email it fails. I have to refresh the page generally 5-10 times before I can even click the inbox button. Does Safari/Apple plan on fixing this issue or should I just switch to Firefox? I have the most recent Safari and am running OSX lion the most recent version. Basically everything is completely up to date as I bought this computer a mere 2 weeks ago.

    Instead of accessing Yahoo via Safari, setup your account using the Mac Mail app that is preinstalled on your Mac.
    Launch Mail. From the menu click Mail / Preferences then select the Accounts tab then select the Account Information tab.
    Click + under the Account panel on the left.
    Follow the instructions to add your Yahoo email account.
    Now, instead of using Safari, just click the Mail icon in your Dock.
    Just so you are aware. Apple is not responsible for third party web based email clients software compatibility.
    If you don't want to setup your email using the Mac Mail app, definitely try Firefox.
    Always good to have a backup browser installed in case one isn't working regardless.

  • ACE - Support for SSL Server Name Indication (SNI)

    Hi,
    I have the question if Cisco ACE currently or in the future supports SSL SNI (RFC 3546 or 4366). You run into that problem when moving SSL termination from a server that supports having multiple different certificates bound to the same IP and acting on the different domain names (SNI). Currently I do not see any chance how to build that on the ACE. In case it is definitely not supported, is there anything on the roadmap for that?
    Thanks and best regards,
    Daniel

  • Does Samba in Solaris10U5 support DBCS share name?

    Hi,
    I configured in Solaris 10 Update 5 Samba to share a folder to Windows clients.
    Locale in Solaris are: ja_JP.PCK
    As a share name I added DBCS chars (Japanese localized chars).
    In Japanese Windows XP this share is available but the name is currupted.
    Does anybody know if this is issue or just Samba in Solaris does't support DBCS as a name?

  • Does Garageband for iPad support audio output over Airplay?

    Since I don't currently have an Airplay output device on my network, I can't tell if Garageband supports this. Anyone know?
    Thanks.

    When the iPad or iTunes is sending music/video to an AirPlay Output device, it is actually sending the music/video file over to that device to play rather then just sending 2 channels of audio.
    For this reason, GarageBand would be a difficult task asnit would need to send up to 10 files (8 tracks and 2 effects) over the network to play in perfect sync.
    For this reason, garageBand would not be stable and you would have a large amount of drag.
