What does mean: a. APM b. ASM

 

I'd assume by your response that you're not using either. These are licensed modules that act on authentication and web security. So again, if you have NO iRules on the 44 VIP, then the next likely culprit is perhaps the SSL negotiation. I would also reset the HTTP profile to use the default parent profile for now. I don't thing caching has anything to do with this, but better to remove any doubt. I would recommend two things:

 

  1. First is Nitass' suggestion to use a client side capture mechanism like HttpFox, Fiddler, or HTTPWatch. Compare the dialogs with the different browsers.

     

  2. If that doesn't yield anything useful, I'd probably fire up an SSLDUMP on the LTM command line and watch both the SSL negotiation and the lower level (TCP) transactions. All of this trouble appears to have started after you updated the certificate, so it's a fair guess that you'll see something funky in the SSL negotiation with specific browsers.
