Overview

In TLS connections certificates are used for validating the identity of the server, or optionally the client as well. The certificate validation involves the following two main types of checks:

Trust
Is the certificate itself in the trust list? Is any of the CAs in the certificate chain in the trust list?
Naming
Does one of the names in the certificate match the name of the remote endpoint? For example if you open https://www.example.com the web browser checks if the certificate contains "www.example.com" as a name.

This article summarizes the requirements to trust relationships and certificate names in different scenarios.
