How do I configure multiple intermediate certificates?

I'm having a problem with intermediate certificates.

 

 

I've followed the steps located here without error: https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/6000/400/sol6401.html?sr=820899. However, the cert chain is still not transmitted.

 

 

The only difference that might be a problem is that we have multiple intermediate certificates in our chain. Those have been imported into a "certificate bundle". Which is what's being used in the "chain" property of the client ssl profile.

 

 

Is there a problem with using a bundle as an intermediate and if so how do you configure multiple intermediate certificates?

 

 

Thanks,

    I was able to get this working. There must have been something wrong with one of the certs in the intermediate chain or the name "intermediate-ca" is reserved in some way.

     

     

    I redownloaded each of the certs, exported to base 64, reconstructed the intermediate chain file and imported it as a new Cert Bundle.

     

     

    There is nothing different from the new chain file and the old one, except that I named the new chain file something other than intermediate-ca.
