If the ``binary_form`` parameter is :const:`True`, and a certificate was

certificate. This return value is independent of validation; if validation

socket's role:
* for a client SSL socket, the server will always provide a certificate,
regardless of whether validation was required;
* for a server SSL socket, the client will only provide a certificate
when requested by the server; therefore :meth:`getpeercert` will return
:const:`None` if you used :const:`CERT_NONE` (rather than
:const:`CERT_OPTIONAL` or :const:`CERT_REQUIRED`).
