Even Stranger,

 

So I did two different curl request to the https version of the website.

 

[root@F5:Active:Standalone] config nfig curl -iv https://abc.com - -insecure * About to connect() to abc.com port 443 (0) * Trying IP... connected * Connected to abc.com (IP) port 443 (0) * successfully set certificate verify locations: * CAfile: /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt CApath: none * SSLv3, TLS handshake, Client hello (1): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, Server hello (2): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, CERT (11): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, Server finished (14): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, Client key exchange (16): * SSLv3, TLS change cipher, Client hello (1): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, Finished (20): * SSLv3, TLS change cipher, Client hello (1): * SSLv3, TLS handshake, Finished (20): * SSL connection using AES256-SHA256 * Server certificate:

  • SSL read: error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0), errno 104
  • Closing connection 0

The next time, i get expected results, but in the chrome browser, https://abc.com is still taking me to a blank page. When I try IE 11 it works without any problems. Then a few minutes later its back to taking me to the F5. at https://abc.com/tmui/login.jsp

 

F5 is strange.
