Application Hosted on IIS does not load after enabling X-Forwarded-For in Big IP

Hello Geeks,

 

when we enable X-Forwarded-For on our Big IP for Public Facing application, application does not load and redirect to login page.

 

Do we need to configure something on IIS

 

Below is the Application for Architecture for ready reference

 

Client - > F5 Big IP -> IIS

 

  • Think this is more of an ISS / Application question than an F5 LTM question.

     

    I would however recommend enabled advanced logging on the IIS server to try and track the requests and responses to see what is happening.
