This is an implicit TLS connection. I don’t think anyone uses the term since the 1990s (when it was still SSL). From the user’s perspective, they didn’t have to send a TLS connection command, since it was already done when the connection first started. The other way, a.k.a. Start-TLS, is an explicit command. (Oddly, by reversing the perspective, implicit-TLS is externally imposed on the protocol while Start-TLS is internally generated by the protocol.)

It seems that both my possibilities were right. You still need to call “resume”, but the connection waits until the first read/write/secure-connection to start work.  (Which one of the three starting points is used depends on what protocol you're implementing.)
