Chapter 9 Configuring SSL
Enabling Client Authentication
At least one SSL certificate is available.
Use the following procedures to enable or disable client authentication:
Configuring SSL Proxy Service, page 9-28
Configuring SSL Authentication Groups, page 9-32
Configuring CRLs for Client Authentication, page 9-33
Configuring SSL Authentication Groups
On the ACE, you can implement a group of certificates that are trusted as certificate signers by creating
an authentication group. After creating the authentication group and assigning its certificates, then you
can assign the authentication group to a proxy service in an SSL termination configuration to enable
client authentication. For information on client authentication, see Enabling Client Authentication,
page 9-31.
For information on server authentication and assigning an authentication group, see Configuring SSL
Proxy Service, page 9-28.
Use this procedure to specify the certificate authentication groups that the ACE uses during the SSL
handshake and enable client authentication on this SSL-proxy service. The ACE includes the certificates
configured in the group along with the certificate that you specified for the SSL proxy service.
Assumptions
At least one SSL certificate is available.
Your ACE appliance supports authentication groups.
