multiple SSL certificates on a VS

I am trying to setup a single VS that gets traffic come from two host names let just say test1.site.com and test2.site.com, and then I am going to sort by host name to different http classes so I can apply a separate ASM policy to each site and send them to different web servers on the backend. My issue is that these are both SSL sites and I need to apply a different certificate to each site name. I was thinking I might be able to use an iRule for this but was not sure how to set it up properly. Any suggestion.

    Hi Mike,

     

     

    As Nitass alluded to, if you have a controlled user base and can guarantee there aren't any XP clients, you can potentially use Joel's TLS SNI iRule to present the correct cert based on which hostname the client is requesting. If that's not an option, then you could get a wildcard cert for *.site.com or get a SAN cert valid for test1.site.com and test2.site.com.
