NimbostratusContent aware routing to HTTPS pools using a single virtual server
Hey there,
I currently have a virtual server that is serving content from a single pool. The virtual server is doing SSL bridging and redirects port 80 traffic to 443. I recently got the request to do the following:
https://mysite.com/chat --> send traffic to -->
I set up an iRule to set the pool to the one that contains 'my-local-server' if the URI ends_with '/chat'. When I turned on logging I could see the rule firing, however when you attempt to browse or curl that particular path the HTTP response is a 'connection reset'.
I have a hunch that this has to do with the SSL bridging that is configured on the virt, as 'my-local-server' is using a different certificate than 'mysite.com'. Do I need a specific SSL Server profile for this, or am I going down the wrong path?

- what does "SSL bridging" mean?
- does the request involve changing the Host headers from mysite.com to my-local-server?
Maybe show the config of the virtual server so its clear what it is doing.
Luke_Baker_2127SSL bridging meaning that the client HTTPS connection is terminated at the virtual server, and then re-encrypted to the nodes.
Instead of doing a redirect, I would like to keep the URL as 'mysite.com/chat'.
- Mohamed_LrhaziThanks. So, the pool for my-local-server is green? does it have an https monitor? Try loading a page using curl on the BIGIP, like : curl -kvI -H "Host: mychat.com" https://ip-address-of-server Maybe show the iRule you are using as well.
