CirrusCertificate auth require Password?
Strange issue between Android ActiveSync and F5 server.
Initial setup was from iApp then modified.
We have SSL profile that request Client Certificate Authentication.
If in Android ActiveSync client password is empty then there will be authentication fails, regardless we have checked Client Cert Authentication. (This issue isn’t present on Blue Coat or NetScaler, so I assume it’s something with initial F5 request).
I have tried to modify header password, insert header password etc. but no luck. Thing is that we don’t need password, password can be anything because behind Certificate we have SSO. We only need certificate from Client.
What can we do next in F5 SSL profile?

Are you seeing the Certificate auth succeeds if password not empty?

So password empty or non-empty is not a factor, either way cert fails? Is the cert valid (trusted, matches domain) ?

Yes
