Here is the situation... in production, we require RSA authentication for most of the GUI users. What I did was to create a user that requires local authentication (since RSA can't be integrated into my application -- the one that makes the calls to the F5 webservice). Now, since the app isn't using RSA, I'm thinking of ways of adding additional authentication to satisfy the security team.
Is there a way to add the mutual authentication on a particular user, rather than the whole F5 interface?

Thanks again,
Vladimir
