TLS extension "Server Name Indication" (SNI): value not available on server side

Viewed 3400

Based on the JSSE examples, I'm trying to get the value of the TLS parameter "Server Name Indication" (SNI) on the server side - without success. I'm sure that the value is sent by the client since I used a network sniffer (Wireshark) that shows the value.

But when I use the following code fragment, the list of server name parameters is empty (while the "protocols" are shown):

public void connectionAccepted(Socket socket) 
{ 
  System.out.println("Connection accepted!"); 
  try { 
    /* get SNI parameter */ 
    SSLSocket sslSocket = (SSLSocket)socket; 
    SSLParameters sslParams = sslSocket.getSSLParameters(); 

    List<SNIServerName> serverNames = sslParams.getServerNames(); 
    for(SNIServerName item : serverNames){ 
      System.out.println("SNI: " + item.toString()); 
    } 

    String[] protocols = sslParams.getProtocols(); 
    for(String item : protocols) { 
      System.out.println("Protocols: " + item.toString()); 
    } 
  } catch (Exception e) { 
    e.printStackTrace(); 
  } 
}
