OK. That was very useful to use LiveHTTPHeaders. I found out the HTTP references are made in the payload. Even though the response from F5 was a 302 redirect ( I enabled http to https redirection on the F5), it was too late for the POST messages since the username and password is already sent in clear text.

 

 

I looked at the STREAM example and I think I have some idea on how to do it, but it seems like each HTTP reference needs to be handled separately. is this correct or did I misunderstand it?

 

 

thanks,
