Thanks for your response
Just to clarify my requirement, since I am totally new to this concept.
Scenario
I have an application which is directly accessed by https://ek5054.fgbmis.local/home. The server hostname is ek5074 with ip address 10.100.101.161
On F5 I have configured a virtual IP for 10.100.101.161 as 10.100.101.162 and given an entry in dns as irec.fgbapps.local for the virtual IP.
Now SSL offloading is done based on the wildcard character *.fgbapps.local
When I try to access the application as https://irec.fgbapps.local/home, the IE throws up a Certificate error.
As per my understanding, this is due to the server response is with an url as https://ek5054.fgbmis.local/msalsext/param?.........
I can click on continue on the certificate error and the system works fine. I can even replace the ek5054.fgbmis.local on IE with irec.fgbapps.local along with the other parameters and click ok, the same page appears.
Basically what I need to know is whether I can replace the ek5054.fgbmis.local on the server response url to irec.fgbapps.local so that F5 identifies it and doesnt throw up the certificate error.
Regards
Febin
