Client Certificate Inspection
About client certificate inspection
The Client Cert Inspection access policy item checks the result of the SSL handshake that occurs at the start of a session. It does not, however, negotiate an SSL session. It relies on settings in a client SSL profile that is added to the virtual server. The Client Cert Inspection item can provide the result of the SSL handshake, including certificate revocation status when the client SSL profile specifies a certificate revocation list (CRL).
Task summary for client certificate inspection
To complete this configuration, you need an access profile and a virtual server configured. Checking the validity of a client certificate is very likely to be one of many items you add to an access policy.
