Reuters uses sink & source for SSL and honestly I hate it, maybe because I'm
an engineer I prefer TX and RX if you are going to name individual
directions.

Out of all the messaging models I have dealt with I can't recall any
situation that you cannot apply the terms client & server to even though it
might require inspection of each hop transaction for application.  There are
going to be instances such it is confusing but as long as it is defined
people can manage it.
