client-ssl broken
Wow. I thought I was going mad. Yes, the web interface with 11.5.1 HF3 "SEEMS" to be knackered when attempting add an ssl-client entry. Basically, the cert and key entries are ignored UNLESS YOU PRESS THE ADD BUTTON. I was getting a different error with 11.5.0: it was complaining that in invalid key pair was specified, although a manual check using openssh showed that the cert and private key were correct. (heck, I copied them from another web server where they worked...)
Although not fun, I was able to work around the problem my manaully specifying the SSL clients using tmsh. So, this looks like a web management interface problem.
I'm new to F5 Bip IP LTM (background with Cisco ACE, CSM, CSS, etc...) and must say that this really pissed me off as I have wasted over a day first wondering if I was doing something wrong, and then trying to figure out a work-around. Mind you, has been a good learning opportunity as it forced me into tmsh early on...
I would recommend that the interface be modified to do some better data validation. I.e. ensure that the "ADD" button has been pressed before allowing the changes to be committed.
