title: How to deal with the situation of server certificate over 16k?
body: <p>As the title, when a server has a long list of certificates, supposed their total size is over 16KBytes, how to pack them into a TLSplaintext? If we can't, please tell me how to seperate the certificate chain into different TLSplaintexts?</p>
  
  <p>I ask because in RFC 2246, the size of a 'Certificate' package could reach 2^24 bytes. That is over the maximum size allowed in a TLSPlaintext; 2^14+5 bytes. The standard does not mention how we can split the package when the size of a 'Certificate' package is over 2^14+5. That confuses me a lot.</p>
