CumulonimbusAPM Client Cert Authentication
Hi D.C. Experts,
I want to do Client cert authentication for app using the APM. My company users having their Certs installed on mobiles.
So can anybody please guide me, how to do that ? Do I need to install any cert in F5 ? If yes what type of cert I need to use in F5 ?
Thanks in advance.

Check the APM operation guide, it covers what you need: https://support.f5.com/content/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_apm/manuals/product/f5-apm-operations-guide/_jcr_content/pdfAttach/download/file.res/f5-apm-operations-guide.pdf
Regarding the certificate on you apm, you will probably need to import the CA certificate that issues you client certificates so the apm can verify that those certificates are valid. With the apm access policy you can go further and check the CN and only allow those you are interested in.
