Description
Because of the limitation of TLS protocols, without SNI extension, HTTPS server cannot be hosted in virtual hosting infrastructure where multiple domains share the same IP address. This becomes even more of a problem in the age of cloud computing.

SunJSSE has enabled SNI extension in client by default from JDK 7. We need to support the SNI extension in server side in JDK 8.
