Hey Immu,

 

you have to do the following:

 

  • add your certificates
  • System -> SSL Certificates
  • create an SSL client profile
  • Local Traffic -> Profiles -> SSL -> Client
  • here is important to add the certificate key chain (certificate, private key, CA)
  • add the SSL profile to your Virtual host
  • Local Trafic -> Virtual Servers -> -> Properties -> SSL Profile (Client)

After those steps you can remove the certificate from the backend server and the traffic will be decrypted after your Big-IP.
