Hi Can anyone give me a solution how to import server certificate into a keystore to validate the request is coming from valid client.

I have gone through this article but having few questions.

1) How will my server validate the client certificate ?

2) Will this(X509Certificate) .net class validate Genie(Tivoli) certificate ?

3) Do i need to have certificate configured on my server ?

Thanks in advance

If you would like to know how IIS verifies client certificates, you might read carefully this KB 907274 for your 1) and 3)

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/907274

For an ASP.NET site, it has no chance to verify the certificate as the verification is done at IIS level (http.sys generally). Thus, X509Certificate class is less relevant, unless you want to further check the verified client certificate for more info. This is for 2).
