Hello. I am analyzing TLS packets, in support of my company's effort to restrict all TLS sessions to use version 1.2.

I have been aware for some time that there is both a Record version, and a Handshake version, in a TLS packet. But today was the first time I saw two different versions seemingly associated with the Record. Here is what I'm seeing...

Can anyone explain how to interpret these two "Record versions"?

Thx, feenyman99

Look into the TLS handshake itself, there you'll see the handshake version which is the version the client supports. This, when agreed by the server, will define the version listed for the record layer.
