| 20Due to the protocol definition, a TLS/SSL server will always send a 21certificate, if present. A client will only send a certificate when 22explicitely requested to do so by the server (see 23L<SSL_CTX_set_verify(3)|SSL_CTX_set_verify(3)>). If an anonymous cipher 24is used, no certificates are sent. 25 |
