Apr 07, 2010Hi Aaron,
Thanks for the response. I am quite new to iRules and having trouble picking out the bits I need to do the job. It seems the app developers are happy to offload all of the SSL functionality onto the load balancer, so I won't necessarily need to pass the client certificate information to the web server. So what I would like to achieve is:
Use a class map to specify URIs which require a client cert.
Check if client cert is present and that it is valid.
If there is no valid client cert, send back a HTTP 403.7 error to advise user that a certificate is required.
If client cert exists and is valid, allow access to the application.
I am sure this quite simple to achieve, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Becky
