Websocket with client authentication (mutual SSL)

Postby AloyseTech » Thu Jun 18, 2020 5:18 pm

Hi,

I'm trying to setup a websocket (wss) client with mutual SSL authentication.

Currently (ESP-IDF 4.0.1) the websocket API seems to only offer server authentication (by providing the trusted certificate). Is there any way to add client authentication (i.e. provide client cert and key to the server) ?

Best regards

Hi there,

Were you able to find a way to get websockets working with client authentication using the ESP websocket client?

Even in ESP-IDF 4.1 the struct esp_websocket_client_config_t does not have a way to configure the client certificate and key for verification by the server.

Best regards
