One is a root ca (which is a self signed ca) and the other is an intermediate ca , signed by the root ca. Intermediate CA has issued a client certificate which is shared with the client along with the chain(intermediate + root). The chain looks as following: ClientCert -> IntermediateCACert -> RootCACert root ca certificate is the CA certificate which has been added in the trusted CA certificate list for the web. From the client side, the chain is being used to establish the connection with the server. The connection gets established successfully. Nginx does the SSL termination. Although there are options to fetch the client certificate (only the leaf certificate, using variable ssl_client_cert), there is no way to get the entire chain of certificates from Nginx.
