Well, if I'm understanding you, you want to send the binary certificate between VIPs? A certificate can be either DER or PEM encoded. [SSL::cert 0] produces the DER, and [X509::whole [SSL::cert 0]] produces the PEM. I would not recommend sending the DER version in an HTTP header, and the PEM version is laced with line breaks.
In any case, you'd need something on the other VIP to receive the HTTP header and do something with it. How are you using the value in the application behind the second VIP?
