-In order to successfully accomplish the handshake, the SSL routines need
-to know whether they should act in server or client mode. If the generic
-method was used, this is not clear from the method itself and must be set
-with either SSL_set_connect_state() or SSL_set_accept_state(). If these
-routines are not called, the default value set when L<SSL_new(3)|SSL_new(3)>
-is called is server mode.
+When beginning a new handshake, the SSL engine must know whether it must
+call the connect (client) or accept (server) routines. Even though it may
+be clear from the method chosen, whether client or server mode was
+requested, the handshake routines must be explicitly set.
+
+When using the L<SSL_connect(3)|SSL_connect(3)> or
+L<SSL_accept(3)|SSL_accept(3)> routines, the correct handshake
+routines are automatically set. When performing a transparent negotiation
+using L<SSL_write(3)|SSL_write(3)> or L<SSL_read(3)|SSL_read(3)>, the
+handshake routines must be explicitly set in advance using either
+SSL_set_connect_state() or SSL_set_accept_state().
