ESP SSL server - is bidirectional authentication possible?

Hi,

I am looking at:

https://www.espressif.com/sites/default ... ual_en.pdf

And wondering whether it is possible to have bidirectional authentication on the ESP8266 when it is configured as a SSL server?

I need the server to authenticate the client but looks like only one way authentication (where the client authenticates the server) is possible???

Not sure whether I am missing something...

Thanks in advance

You can have both, you just have to set it up.

You need to provide the client certs as well as the server CA chain and then you will get both ways
