SSL validation.
Hi all, I need to validate certificate, username and password from local CA for requests from client to server, How can I do that by BIG-IP? here i'll offload and the F5 will act as the server.

Do you mean validating a client cert? Try this iRule; https://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/irules.Validate_certificate_Common_Name_and_revocation.ashx
For username /password I will assume you are using an "Authorization" request header - this should work;-
when HTTP_REQUEST { if {!([b64decode[getfield [HTTP::header Authorization] ' ' 2]] eq "username:password")} { HTTP::respond 401 return } }- refra_151287

Authorization request header, what does that mean?
username and password are not in certificate. authorization http header is used for authentication.
