I don't think the TLS Peer configuration has anything to do with certificate 
chains, but what do I know :-)

The remote system will send us its cert when a TLS connection is set up, and 
the admin must have installed the CA that that cert is signed with.  This is 
done on the Certificates page, not on the TLS Peer page.

The only thing that adding a TLS Peer does is apply permissions to calls coming 
in from that peer.  It is entirely optional, and not having a TLS Peer 
configured is the same as having one configured which has no permissions.
