    536536The default should be reasonable for most servers and requires
    537 `mod_socache_shmcb` to be loaded. Servers with very many virtual hosts
    538 may need to increase the default cache size via the parameters string,
    539 those with few virtual hosts and constrains could save a few KB by
    540 reducing it. Note that `mod_socache_dbm` has a size constraint for
    541 entries that is generally too small for OCSP responses.

    693 Simple Standard TLS Example
    694 ---------------------------
    695 
    696 The following is an example of simple TLS hosting, using one IP
    697 Addresses for each virtual host.
     694Minimal Example
     695---------------
     696
     697A minimal server configuration using mod_gnutls might look like this
     698(other than the default setup):
     699
     700     # Load mod_gnutls into Apache.
     701     LoadModule gnutls_module modules/mod_gnutls.so
     702
     703         Listen 192.0.2.1:443
     704
     705     <VirtualHost _default_:443>
     706             # Standard virtual host stuff
     707         DocumentRoot /www/site1.example.com/html
     708         ServerName site1.example.com:443
     709         
     710                 # Minimal mod_gnutls setup: enable, and set credentials
     711                 GnuTLSEnable on
     712         GnuTLSCertificateFile conf/tls/site1_cert_chain.pem
     713         GnuTLSKeyFile conf/tls/site1_key.pem
     714     </VirtualHost>
     715
     716This gives you an HTTPS site using the GnuTLS `NORMAL` set of
     717ciphersuites. OCSP stapling will be enabled if the server certificate
     718contains an OCSP URI, `conf/tls/site1_cert_chain.pem` contains the
     719issuer certificate in addition to the server's, and
     720[mod\_socache\_shmcb](http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/en/mod/mod_socache_shmcb.html)
     721is loaded. With Gnutls 3.6.4 or newer session tickets are enabled,
     722too.
     723
     724Virtual Hosts with Server Name Indication
     725-----------------------------------------
     726
     727`mod_gnutls` supports "Server Name Indication", as specified in [RFC
     7286066, Section 3](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6066#section-3). This
     729allows hosting many TLS websites with a single IP address, you can
     730just add the virtual host conigurations. All recent browsers support
     731this standard. Here is an example using SNI:
    698732
    699733     # Load the module into Apache.
    700734     LoadModule gnutls_module modules/mod_gnutls.so
     735         # This example server uses session tickets, no cache.
     736     GnuTLSSessionTickets on
     737
     738     # SNI allows hosting multiple sites using one IP address. This
     739     # could also be 'Listen *:443', just like '*:80' is common for
     740     # non-HTTPS
     741     Listen 198.51.100.1:443
     742
     743     <VirtualHost _default_:443>
     744         GnuTLSEnable on
     745         DocumentRoot /www/site1.example.com/html
     746         ServerName site1.example.com:443
     747         GnuTLSCertificateFile conf/tls/site1.crt
     748         GnuTLSKeyFile conf/tls/site1.key
     749     </VirtualHost>
     750
     751     <VirtualHost _default_:443>
     752         GnuTLSEnable on
     753         DocumentRoot /www/site2.example.com/html
     754         ServerName site2.example.com:443
     755         GnuTLSCertificateFile conf/tls/site2.crt
     756         GnuTLSKeyFile conf/tls/site2.key
     757     </VirtualHost>
     758
     759     <VirtualHost _default_:443>
     760         GnuTLSEnable on
     761         DocumentRoot /www/site3.example.com/html
     762         ServerName site3.example.com:443
     763         GnuTLSCertificateFile conf/tls/site3.crt
     764         GnuTLSKeyFile conf/tls/site3.key
     765     </VirtualHost>
     766
     767Virtual Hosts without SNI
     768-------------------------
     769
     770If you need to support clients that do not use SNI, you have to use a
     771unique IP address/port combination for each virtual host. In this
     772example all virtual hosts use the default port for HTTPS (443) and
     773different IP addresses.
     774
     775     # Load the module into Apache.
     776     LoadModule gnutls_module modules/mod_gnutls.so
     777         # This example server uses a session cache.
    701778     GnuTLSCache dbm:/var/cache/www-tls-cache
    702      GnuTLSCacheTimeout 500
    703

     779     GnuTLSCacheTimeout 1200
     780
     781     # Without SNI you need one IP Address per site. The IP addresses
     782         # are listed separately for clarity, you could also use "Listen 443"
     783         # to use that port on all available IP addresses.
    705784     Listen 192.0.2.1:443
    706785     Listen 192.0.2.2:443

    754 Server Name Indication Example
    755 ------------------------------
    756 
    757 `mod_gnutls` supports "Server Name Indication", as specified in
    758 [RFC 6066, Section 3](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6066#section-3). This
    759 allows hosting many TLS websites with a single IP address. All recent
    760 browsers support this standard. Here is an example using SNI:
     820OCSP Stapling Example
     821---------------------
     822
     823This is an example with a customized OCSP stapling configuration. What
     824is a resonable cache timeout varies depending on how long your CA's
     825OCSP responses are valid. Some CAs provide responses that are valid
     826for multiple days, in that case timeout and fuzz time could be
     827significantly larger.

    808 them im a memcached cache shared with another server.
