    <datatype>
      <name name="active_msgs"/>
      <desc>
      <p>When a TLS/DTLS socket is in active mode (the default), data from the
      socket is delivered to the owner of the socket in the form of
      messages as described above.</p>
      <p>The <c>ssl_passive</c> message is sent only when the socket is in
      <c>{active, N}</c> mode and the counter dropped to 0. It indicates
      that the socket has transitioned to passive (<c>{active, false}</c>) mode.</p>
      </desc>
    </datatype>
      
    <datatype>
      <name name="transport_option"/>
      <desc>
	<p>Defaults to <c>{gen_tcp, tcp, tcp_closed, tcp_error,
	tcp_passive}</c> for TLS (for backward compatibility a four
	tuple will be converted to a five tuple with the last element
	"second_element"_passive) and <c>{gen_udp, udp, udp_closed,
	udp_error}</c> for DTLS (might also be changed to five tuple in
	the future). Can be used to customize the transport layer. The
	tag values should be the values used by the underlying
	transport in its active mode messages. For TLS the callback
	module must implement a reliable transport protocol, behave as
	<c>gen_tcp</c>, and have functions corresponding to
	<c>inet:setopts/2</c>, <c>inet:getopts/2</c>,
	<c>inet:peername/1</c>, <c>inet:sockname/1</c>, and
	<c>inet:port/1</c>.  The callback <c>gen_tcp</c> is treated
	specially and calls <c>inet</c> directly. For DTLS this
	feature must be considered experimental.
