Hi, Following above suggestions, I have applied these changes:

 

  • WebServer1 is on 10.10.10.56 listening on https 9343
  • WebServer1 is on 10.10.10.58 listening on https 9343

On linux system hosting the F5 BIG IP, I configured : - a network interface with ip 10.10.10.54 communicating with 10.10.10.56 and 10.10.10.58; - F5 management interface is on IP 1.1.1.54; - Defined Virtual Server , with Destination address 9.A.B.54 , port 443 - https;

 

with Source addresses 0.0.0.0/0, with Client and Server SSL profiles;

 

with node members associated to the web servers 10.10.10.56 and 10.10.10.56 (up and running OK);

 

But if I launch from external client browser : it opens the F5 Management Interface instead of redirect to one of web servers

 

I see only for less than 1 second a string "redirect" in the middle of browser page, but it returns to the F5 management interface

why show all IPs and then do 9.a.b.54, it feels like you are trying to hide things which make it difficult for us to trouble shoot and really don't matter as this is test any way right?

 

should us some configuration snippets of what you created.
