      Section 3.3.2, NIST SP 800-52:
      ---------------------------------------------
      The server random value, sent in the ServerHello message, contains a 4-byte timestamp[*] value and 28-byte random value. The validated random number generator shall be used to generate the 28-byte random value of the server random value. The validated random number generator should be used to generate the 4-byte timestamp of the server random value.

      Section 4.3.2, NIST SP 800-52:
      ---------------------------------------------
      The validated random number generator shall be used to generate the 28-byte random value of the client random value. The validated random number generator should be used to generate the 4-byte timestamp of the client random value.

      [*] The timestamp value does not need to be correct in TLS. It can be any 4-byte value, unless otherwise restricted by higher-level or application protocols.
