Sorry if I am not being clear. I was told this could be done, at the F5 level, but now I am not so sure.

 

 

This application will always trust our domain, so I don't think that cert errors will be an issue. It is not a normal browser, but the agent sometimes shows up as mozilla, or TestAgent.

 

 

Right now:

User comes in on url1.domain.com (cname), and is redirected behind the f5 to url2.domain.com (A record, SSL Cert for this siite). The application to not see the redirect and still think it is url1.domain.com. Only do this for User-Agents Moziilla, and TestAgent.
