Hi Niels van Sluis, You're right, we don't use any serverssl profile, our pool members only listening on port 80, so we need irules to insert host:443, and we'll get the https web. when we changed the web service from apache to nginx, and it's not working. we're wondering if we need to change irules?

The following configuration is our web service and it works well.

destination x.x.x.x:https 
ip-protocol tcp
mask 255.255.255.255
pool ltgm_web_pool
profiles {
    clientssl-xxxx {
        context clientside
    }
    clientssl-xxxx {
        context clientside
    }
    http { }
    http2 { }
    oneconnect { }
    tcp-lan-optimized {
        context serverside
    }
    tcp-wan-optimized {
        context clientside
    }
    wan-optimized-compression { }
