http to https web access

Kevin,

 

 

I apologize for the delay in posting back. I also want to thank you so much for your help and wanted to know that it's all working now.

 

 

to be specific the solution you posted in 03/07/2013 10:58 AM was correct, and the only difference here is the web server that I was connecting to, because that other one seems to have its own problems, so I tried another one and the next thing you know it's working fine.

 

 

here's what I followed from your post:

 

Let's start at the beginning though with the assumption, if I understood you correctly, that the client contacts and maintains a session to the BIG-IP on port 80 (HTTP), while the BIG-IP contacts and maintains a session to the pool members on port 443 (HTTPS). So while the servers themselves are listening on an https:// address, the client is always using an http:// address. If that is so:

 

 

1. Standard LTM virtual server (HTTP profile, SNAT profile as required, pool of port 443 servers, OneConnect profile, and anything else you may need)

 

2. Server SSL profile - I'm also making the assumption that the server does NOT require a client certificate. If so, you can simply apply the built-in generic serverssl profile to the above virtual server.

 

 

Again thanks a lot.
