Hi,
 
I have a general question about :
 
If while in ssl/tls handshake, one encounters an error, whether to send alert that time only or let the handshake get complete and then send an alert to the peer for closing the session..
 
Consider server authentication fails on client side, then should client send an alert right now or waits for the handshake to get complete and later send a alert "close notify"..
 
In Openssl, it send the alert at the moment it gets an error like certificate verification failed, but Microsoft Secured Channel continues to do handshake and it the application responsibility to send a close notify alert..
 
 
Thanks
Aslam
