You will need to configure the server to require client certificate
validation.

There is no generic configuration option for this, but you can hardcode
EAP-TTLS server to do this with following change:


diff --git a/src/eap_server/eap_ttls.c b/src/eap_server/eap_ttls.c
index b097ab2..a6fe1e8 100644
--- a/src/eap_server/eap_ttls.c

 		data->ttls_version = 0;
 	}
 
-	if (eap_server_tls_ssl_init(sm, &data->ssl, 0)) {
+	if (eap_server_tls_ssl_init(sm, &data->ssl, 1)) {
 		wpa_printf(MSG_INFO, "EAP-TTLS: Failed to initialize SSL.");
 		eap_ttls_reset(sm, data);
 		return NULL;
