Moving from IHS to F5

We currently have two IBM IHS servers serving contents to two different applications using SSL (two different domains, two different SSL certs). Something like..     https://domain1/context1 -> ...

You can probably export the SSL private keys from the existing server(s) they're installed on. You can convert the cert and key to PEM format using openssl. Else, you could do as nassahla suggests and generate a new key and ask for a new cert from the CA.

 

 

And yes, you can use a self signed cert on the server. With a default server SSL profile, LTM doesn't do any validation of the server cert so it doesn't matter who the issuer is.
