for SSL encryption, the setting wasn't needed. It was when I added client authentication did I see the need for it. However, I keep learning on the various nuances of certificates so I should attempt to remove as many extensions as possible. I created the broker and client certificates the same, and I am expecting that is not needed, so I should re-evaluate with the idea that the extensions between them are different.
