Hi all,     I am beginner with the F5.     I need to configure the LTM as a web proxy (squid).     This is possible?     Thanks.   Jayme.

Works great! Had to do some modifications for the port detection, didn't work straight out of the box with v10.1. 


 Check if host header has a port 
    if {$host contains ":"}{

I had to use [HTTP::host] instead of $host there to get it rolling.

Would I be able to make this to do HTTP --> HTTPS transition (with chosen SSL-profile) just by modifying this, or is that too complicated? I mean traffic sent to LTM in private network would be HTTP, and them LTM would send it to public network using HTTPS with chosen profile.
