iRule for Sponsor Portal Authentication

Perhaps somebody can point me in the right direction for a solution that I would expect to already deployed, yet I have been unable to find any examples so far.

 

I have Cisco ISE running WiFi Sponsor Portal web server which - being HTTPS only - requires that users must manually enter a username and password. I wish to offload this requirement to F5 LTM and use info from the user's machine certificates to enable seamless access. One further complication is that to avoid the use of a new password value being stored in plaintext I am wondering if it is possible to concatenate 2 values from the certificate together, hash these and send the result to the identity store to be used as a password ? So the application of the iRule would result in 2 additional HTTPS headers being sent to ISE, namely username and password.

 

Apologies if this is 'old hat' to many out there, but I'm struggling to find answers here...
