=head1 NAME
SSL_get_default_timeout - get default session timeout value
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
long SSL_get_default_timeout(SSL *ssl);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
SSL_get_default_timeout() returns the default timeout value assigned to
SSL_SESSION objects negotiated for the protocol valid for B<ssl>.
=head1 NOTES
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
L<SSL_CTX_set_timeout(3)|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).
=head1 RETURN VALUES
See description.
