When compared to :class:`SSLSocket`, this object lacks the following
features:
- - Any form of network IO incluging methods such as ``recv()`` and
- ``send()``.
+ - Any form of network IO including; ``recv()`` and ``send()`` read and write
+ only to the underlying :class:`MemoryBIO` buffers.
- There is no *do_handshake_on_connect* machinery. You must always manually
call :meth:`~SSLSocket.do_handshake` to start the handshake.
