We host multiple Web sites so to keep from using a different IP for each SSL on dev, test, and production for the various Web sites; we use the following:

Jul 19, 2010Hi Gdub,
I imagine the problem is that the web applications are referring to themselves on ports which don't match the LTM virtual server ports you're using. There are a few possible solutions to this:
- Change the webserver configuration to reference the VS ports instead of their own ports
- Define the virtual server on the same port as the web servers. This should work as the VS will be listening on the same ports as the web servers, so no port translations should be necessary.
- Decrypt (and optionally re-encrypt) the SSL and then rewrite port references from the web server ports to the LTM ports. This could be done with HTTP profile options and/or an iRule.
If you want help fleshing out any of these options, let us know.
