+handshake begins. `socket` is typically an object of type [`net.Socket`][] but
+will not receive events unlike the socket created from the [`net.Server`][]
+`'connection'` event. Usually users will not want to access this event.
 
 This event can also be explicitly emitted by users to inject connections
 into the TLS server. In that case, any [`Duplex`][] stream can be passed.
