ClientHello and ServerHello

When you enable -Dssl.debug=true -Djavax.net.debug=ssl -Dweblogic.log.StdoutSeverity=Debug you get a lot of cryptic information in the logs
This document http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/security-vpn/secure-socket-layer-ssl/116181-technote-product-00.html explains quite well the SSL exchange protocol.

this is a sample ClientHello:
