specify the string directly or enclose it in braces.
</li>
+ <li><b>tls.authMode</b> mode</br>
+ Sets the mode used for mutual authentication. Supported values are
+ either "<i>fingerprint</i>" or "<i>name"</i>.
+ <br>Fingerprint mode basically is what SSH
+ does. It does not require a full PKI to be present, instead self-signed
+ certs can be used on all peers. Even if a CA certificate is given, the
+ validity of the peer cert is NOT verified against it. Only the
+ certificate fingerprint counts.
+ <br>In "name" mode, certificate validation happens. Here, the matching
+ is done against the certificate's subjectAltName and, as a fallback,
+ the subject common name. If the certificate contains multiple names,
+ a match on any one of these names is considered good and permits the
+ peer to talk to rsyslog.
