Clear SSL state

Is there an iRule option to clear the SSL state, like what can be done in IE in the internet options with the Clear SSL state in content settings?

This is right, it's what we've got now and it works great. No issues. Except when people haven't inserted the smart card and the certificates are not available.

 

At that point we want to go in a while loop and try 3 times waiting 10 seconds after each try to look for the certificates.

 

This is normally not a problem, but we're trying to use kiosks for this application and the kiosk always removes the SSL certificate cache. But the kiosk doesn't have an option to not proceed until the smart card is inserted.

 

This would help with some other failures we've had also with desktop use of the application, where the user accidentally cancels the certificate selection, or picks the wrong cert.
