app check for ssl when cert is on F5

Deb,

 

 

I am not sure which category my problem falls into. Basically what was happening was that https requests were being terminated by the F5. The requesting scheme that was being passed into the WLS appserver was http instead of https and hence the request to the redirected page went over http. I wanted the incoming scheme to be recognized by WLS as being https.

 

Was able to achieve this by the following solution.

Configuring the BIG-IP LTM to add a header so that BEA WebLogic

 

nodes will generate redirects and links that specify the HTTPS protocol

 

 

Thanks
