Description:
The status command in the 'mysql' client reports this:
...
SSL:			Cipher in use is AES256-SHA
...

But I'd also like to know if TLSv1, TLSv1.1 or TLSv1.2 is used.

How to repeat:
1. Connect using TLS
2. Try to find the TLS version the *client* uses.

Note that "show status like 'ssl_version'" shows the TLS version the *server* is using. This is often identical to the client, but with a proxy/router in between this doesn't have to be the case.

Note that the client does have a --tls-version option to set a required version

Hello Daniël,

Thank you for the report and feature request!

Thanks,
Umesh
