Hi all.  
My website’s work process is the bleow:  
client\_browser:443 → nginx\_reverse\_proxy:443 → nginx\_webserver:443

* * *

in my nginx webserver config file, I setup some ssl options:  
ssl\_verify\_client on;  
ssl\_verify\_depth 1;  
…

I have two questions:

1. Would the nginx webserver check nginx reverse proxy’s CA  
certificate?
2. If would check, is there has an option to setup nginx reverse proxy’s  
CA certificate?

Thank in advance.
