<access sslFlags="Ssl.SslRequireCer"> in .net core - asp.net

Question

I am converting my app from .net framework to .net core 2.1. Now I am facing two issues
1) In .net framework we could use HttpClientCertificate cert = Request.ClientCertificate; So how can we use Request.ClientCertificate in .net core.
2) In .net framework we could set location config like
<location path="MyPath">
<system.webServer>
<security>
<access sslFlags="Ssl.SslRequireCert,SslNegotiateCert,Ssl128" />
</security>
</system.webServer>
</location>
I want to use <access sslFlags="Ssl.SslRequireCert,SslNegotiateCert,Ssl128" /> in net core. How can I do these 2 things. Any help?

To access client certificate you can either:
use HttpContext.Connection.ClientCertificate property
get certificate using header: Request.Headers["X-ARR-ClientCert"]
To use sslFlags you have to add it in the web.config file (exactly like for the standard .NET Framework). webconfig file is auto-generated once you publish your app. Once you open it you can add
access sslFlags to it:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<location path="." inheritInChildApplications="false">
<system.webServer>
<handlers>
<add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModule" resourceType="Unspecified" />
</handlers>
<aspNetCore processPath="dotnet" arguments=".\IdentityServer4Demo.dll" stdoutLogEnabled="false" stdoutLogFile="\\?\%home%\LogFiles\stdout" />
</system.webServer>
</location>
<location path="account">
<system.webServer>
<security>
<access sslFlags="Ssl,SslNegotiateCert,SslRequireCert" />
</security>
</system.webServer>
</location>
<system.webServer>
<security>
<access sslFlags="SslNegotiateCert" />
</security>
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
