LTM support multiple SAN certs on single virtual server

System: BIG-IP versions earlier than 11.5.x Requirement: Offload multiple SAN certs on single Virtual Server

 

Have an end-user requirement to offload multiple SAN certs on single Virtual Server due to financial entity reason, and is it possible or workaround to achieve this?

 

SAN cert 1 (existing) abc.com cde.com

 

SAN cert 2 (new) fgh.com hij.com

 

Thanks in advanced.

  • Unfortunately a single LTM client SSL profile can't specify multiple server name (SNI) values, and an SNI client SSL profile is "selected" based on the Server Name attribute in the profile. What you can do is define a separate client SSL profile for each SAN value (plus the CN if different) and apply all of those to the LTM VIP. So for your example:

     

    SAN cert 1 would create two client SSL profiles, each with a different Server Name value (abc.com and cde.com). SAN cert 2 would create two separate client SSL profiles. Apply all four SSL profiles to the VIP.

     

  • You are indeed correct. Good catch. Fortunately Don was talking about 11.5.0 and older, so I wasn't completely wrong. ;)
