Using a single SSL client certificate

--ssl-client-cert The path to the public client certificate file.
--ssl-client-key The path to the private client key (optional).
--ssl-client-passphrase The secret passphrase used to protect the private client key (optional).

Using SSL client certificates configuration file (supports multiple certificates per run)

--ssl-client-cert-list The path to the SSL client certificate list configuration file (JSON format). See ssl-client-cert-list.json

ssl-client-cert-list.json

[
    {
        "name": "domain1",
        "matches": ["https://test.domain1.com/*", "https://www.domain1/*"],
        "key": {"src": "./client.domain1.key"},
        "cert": {"src": "./client.domain1.crt"},
        "passphrase": "changeme"
    },
    {
        "name": "domain2",
        "matches": ["https://domain2.com/*"],
        "key": {"src": "./client.domain2.key"},
        "cert": {"src": "./client.domain2.crt"},
        "passphrase": "changeme"
    }
]

This option allows setting different SSL client certificate according to URL or hostname. This option takes precedence over --ssl-client-cert, --ssl-client-key and --ssl-client-passphrase options. If there is no match for the URL in the list, these options are used as fallback.
