This document describes a mechanism that enables the Transport Layer
Security (TLS) server to resume sessions and avoid keeping per-client
session state.  The TLS server encapsulates the session state into a
ticket and forwards it to the client.  The client can subsequently
resume a session using the obtained ticket.  This document obsoletes
RFC 4507.  [STANDARDS TRACK]
