SSL/TLS client certificate verification with Python v3.4+ SSLContext
For this example, we’ll create Self-signed server and client certificates. Normally you’d use a server certificate from a Certificate
Create server certificate:
openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -days 365 -nodes -x509 -keyout server.key -out server.crt
Make sure to enter ‘example.com’ for the Common Name.
Next, generate a client certificate:
openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -days 365 -nodes -x509 -keyout client.key -out client.crt
The Common Name for the client certificate doesn’t really matter.
Start Server then send request from client to verify the certificate.
