Subject: unclear wording re: spoofing prevention on network connections

Message-ID: <170205734799.398198.8604828857536449354@wrigleys.postgresql.org> (raw)
The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:
Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/16/preventing-server-spoofing.html
Description:
When I read:
To prevent spoofing on TCP connections, either use SSL certificates and make
sure that clients check the server's certificate, or use GSSAPI encryption
(or both, if they're on separate connections).
It takes some thought to figure out what "separate connections" are being
referred to. Does it mean separate TLS connection and
non-tls-with-gssapi-encryption?
