big ip ltm not passing https traffic

folks

 

i have a ltm 1600 which has stopped passing https traffic to an upstream proxy farm

 

user traffic is sent to the vserver ip on the ltm on port 8080 and then onto the proxies (a persistence profile is being used)

 

ssl was being passed ok but someone has reconfigured something on the f5 and i'm not sure where to start looking or jhow to troubleshoot

 

can anybody help?

 

ps - the proxies are processing https traffic ok if i hit them directly and it looks like a https request via the ltm doesn't reach the proxy

 

thanks to anyone helping out

    Can you post the VS and Pool configurations please. Use 

    tmsh list ltm virtual | pool ...
    to obtain the text configuration.

    thanks for your response

     

    i was getting together the info you requested when i noticed soeone had added an request logging and an analytics profile

     

    once i deleted both these from the vserver it now works

     

    not sure why or these do but i'll do some research

     

    thanks again

    Interesting. I wonder if it's worth adding them back individually to understand which one is the issue. From there, you can check the profile in detail and see what's wrong.

     

    If you're not actually terminating the SSL on the F5 I'd imagine it could actually be both. You can use an Analytics profile with that setup but it can't be configured with to monitor HTTP.
