At the moment I do not know what truststoreFile is exactly for, but for
client authentication you need to set:

 truststoreFile="${catalina.home}/conf/vnet/portalTruststore.jks"
 truststorePass="verysecret" />

In this keystore reside all the certificates with which you can
authenticate yourself on the server.
