R0017: A SENDER SHALL authenticate itself to a RECEIVER using credentials acceptable to the RECEIVER. Acceptable credentials are those credentials that have been requested by the RECEIVER.

Given a TLS handshake, if the RECEIVER is a client, then it never requests credentials as only the server does request them from the client through a CertificateRequest. The server is expected to send its credentials based on the key exchange method.
