It could be that anyconnect servers use a custom protocol to negotiate
the rehandshake. For example it could be something like a packet
'start rehandshake' and then start the actual TLS rehandshake, but I
find it highly unlikely as it is pointless. I have modified the rekey
branch to handle redhandshakes, so I'd appreciate if somebody could
test it against a cisco server.
As I understand one would need to set something like
svc rekey method ssl
svc rekey time 1
