NimbostratusF5 redirection
I have created a virtual server IP x.x.x.x and applied the irule, when HTTP_REQUEST {
HTTP::redirect https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri] } for SSL redirection. However when I browse to domain.com (IP address x.x.x.x) My browser receives "there is a problem with this website's security certificate" because its the internal F5 certificate that is being presented. If I choose to continue with this certificate it pulls up the correct url with the correct SSL certificate. How do I overcome this issue? Thanks Keith

are you off loading the ssl to the ltm? If so, did you create an ssl profile and assign to correct virtual server?
kfenske_50686Yes we are offloading the SSL to the LTM and created a client ssl profile with the proper certificate.- steve_88008
did you change\assign that ssl profile to the virtual server? - kfenske_50686Yes as a SSL profile on our SSL virtual server not the initial virtual server mentioned. Initial virtual server redirect to the SSL virtual server via the irule.
- kfenske_50686Thats is the same way I have it configured. Let me explain a little further. http://www.domain.com resolves to ip x.x.x.x forwards via irule to https://www.domain.com just fine. http://domain.com resolves to the same ip x.x.x.x above but doesn't forward to https://www.domain.com. I get the "there is a problem with this website's security certificate" because its the internal F5 certificate that is being presented.

You can search the iRule forums for "subject alternate name cert" for more info.
