SSLeay

Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.

The Open SSL documentation occasionally mentions SSLeay, mainly where it needs to discuss compatibility of OpenSSL with SSLeay.

After SSL was first introduced by Netscape, an independent implementation of it was developed, the SSLeay library by Eric A. Young and Tim Hudson. This was released in 1995. OpenSSL is based on this SSLeay library.
