Current Behavior

I know CoreClientUtils SelectEndpoint can return the safest EndpointDescription, but I want to create a EndpointDescription, testing different Endpoint security policy, but it can't work;

I found CoreClientUtils SelectEndpoint the certificate is not the same as I create EndpointDescription certificate, unable to realize the connection;

I trust a certificate on the server side, can't I connect with this client certificate?

 private EndpointDescription CreateEndpointDescription(ApplicationConfiguration configuration, string url, string secPolicy, MessageSecurityMode msgSecMode)
        {
            EndpointDescription endpointDescription = new EndpointDescription();
            endpointDescription.EndpointUrl = url;
            endpointDescription.SecurityPolicyUri = SecurityPolicies.GetUri(secPolicy);
            endpointDescription.SecurityMode = msgSecMode;
            endpointDescription.SecurityLevel = ServerSecurityPolicy.CalculateSecurityLevel(msgSecMode, SecurityPolicies.GetUri(secPolicy));

            var tokenPolicy = new UserTokenPolicy(UserTokenType.UserName);
            tokenPolicy.SecurityPolicyUri = SecurityPolicies.GetUri(secPolicy);
            endpointDescription.UserIdentityTokens.Add(tokenPolicy);
            endpointDescription.TransportProfileUri = Profiles.UaTcpTransport;

            if (secPolicy != SecurityPolicies.None)
            {
                var InstanceCertificate = configuration.SecurityConfiguration.ApplicationCertificate.Find(true).Result;
                endpointDescription.ServerCertificate = InstanceCertificate.RawData;
            }

            return endpointDescription;
        }


        public async void Connect(string url, string secPolicy, MessageSecurityMode msgSecMode, bool userAuth, string userName, string password)
        {
            try
            {
                //Secify application configuration
                ApplicationConfiguration ApplicationConfig = mApplicationConfig;

                //Create EndPoint description
                EndpointDescription EndpointDescription = CreateEndpointDescription(ApplicationConfig, url, secPolicy, MessageSecurityMode.SignAndEncrypt);

                //Create EndPoint configuration
                EndpointConfiguration EndpointConfiguration = EndpointConfiguration.Create(ApplicationConfig);

                //Create an Endpoint object to connect to server
                ConfiguredEndpoint Endpoint = new ConfiguredEndpoint(null, EndpointDescription, EndpointConfiguration);


                //Create anonymous user identity
                UserIdentity UserIdentity;
                if (userAuth)
                {
                    UserIdentity = new UserIdentity(userName,password);
                }
                else
                {
                    UserIdentity = new UserIdentity();
                }

                ApplicationConfig.CertificateValidator.Update(ApplicationConfig);

                mSession = await Session.Create(
                mApplicationConfig,
                Endpoint,
                false,
                false,
                ApplicationConfig.ApplicationName,
                6000,
                UserIdentity,
                new string[] { });

            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                //handle Exception here
                
            }
        }
