In your client SSL profile, client authentication authentication sub menu you need to set :

 

  • require client certificate
  • trusted CA to match client cert against
  • Advertise CA to help the client pick the good one (not mandatory)

if something is not working you can activate ssl debug log to have some info (system/logging menu then /var/log/ltm)
