Specifies the maximum verification depth is allowed for determination of a valid certificate by a client. The number is the number of unknown intermediate certificates are allowed between the client and a certificate authority trusted by the server. For example, a depth of 2 would allow a client certificate that is certified by a CA unknown to the server. If that CA is certified by another CA known to the server, the verification is allowed. The default is 1.
