Research direction

The issue does not name any files or tests. Start by locating the existing hostname and certificate verification logic, then determine how peer certificates should be checked against a shared CA authority chain. Done should include an agreed validation behavior and tests covering certificates from the accepted and rejected chains.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Where in the code I can change to enforce the peers certificates against a CA certificate?

My goal is to not only validate the sender host, but if the sender certificate is from the same authority chain of the receiver.

I can try to do it by myself if you tell me in wich part of the code I can change. I think it is at same place you verify the host name of the certificate is from same of the message signer.
