Dear nordic
This ticket is a feature request to implement SSL max_fragment_length of 2k while initiating a TLS connection, when offloading TLS to the NRF9160 modem.
As stated in many other support tickets (for example: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/70178/nrf9160-issue-in-receiving-tls-packets-larger-than-2048-bytes/315975#315975) there is a hard limit on the TLS packages that the NRF9160 can receive. This hard limit is 2k.
The suggested workarounds are either to disable the offload, or to restrict the package sizes on the server side. In my opinion it would be even better if the modem tells the server that it has a TLS limit of 2k. Within SSL this feature exists and is called "max_fragment_length".
For reference I'm currently using mfw_nrf9160_1.3.7
With kind regards
