Oct 05, 2010Issue with SharePoint 2007 behind BIG-IP LTM 9.4.8
Two SharePoint 2007 servers behind an F5 BIG-IP LTM. Doing SSL offload on client side. Server side is port 80 in the clear.
User starts a session. Sniffer trace shows SSL handshake happens. SP server starts talking directly to the client, going around the F5. SP server thinks the F5 is doing this. I can't find a way to make that happen. No iRules are involved. VS is setup according to implementation guide. This has worked previously.
Any help appreciated!

Whoa! Article should read "SP server ADMIN thinks the F5 is doing this..." - Helen_Johnson_1Historic F5 AccountHi Mike,
- Ryan_Korock_46Historic F5 AccountI think Helen hit the nail on the head. In almost all load balanced environments (the exception being the npath/direct server return corner case), return traffic from the servers will need to pass back through the load balancer before it makes it back to the client.
