APM: Multiple Cert Check

In my AP right now, I have a machine cert inspection. I have it set to only look for one issuer right now. I would like for it to check from two different issuers. Is there a way to do this in one client cert check, or do I need to have a fallback with the other issuer? I tired doing an OR statement in the Issuer but it didn't like that. Is there any other tricks or do I just need to create two inspections with fallbacks like I have currently?

 CN=CA1, DC=ABC, DC=COM
      or
 CN=CA2, DC=ABC, DC=COM

    You will need to check for one issuer then fallback to the other issuer if the first check doesn't pass. You will not be able to do an "OR" statement in the issuer.

    You can use a regex if you would like. The following is from the online help for the Machine Cert Action.

    Specifies a regular expression to use to match the Issuer content against the specified pattern.
The order of RDNs is the same as is displayed; the required separator is a comma ,.
Example 3. Regex extraction
Partial match. CN=.*, OU=FP, O=F5, L=San Jose, S=CA, C=US
Exact match. E=test@f5.com, CN=f5clientrootcert, OU=es, O=f5, L=london, S=chertsey, C=uk

    You could have something like 

    CN=CA.*, DC=ABC, DC=COM
    and that should match 
    CA1
    and 
    CA2
    .
