SSLLabs is giving a warning about Session resumption (caching) for the default Nginx configuration for a new site.

To enable this it is required to add (as described in the Nginx docs):

ssl_session_cache   shared:SSL:10m;
ssl_session_timeout 10m;

To the main Nginx server config. I added this as a seperate conf file (/etc/nginx/conf.d/session_cache.conf) and restarted Nginx. Now this is enabled for all sites and SSLLabs gives a pass on this warning.

Somemething to add by default for new configurations?
