Proxypass or Irule to load regular http traffic on a https page....is this even possible
Can you answer two questions for me? I got some F5 Mods trying to help me.
1) Just to be clear, does the server reach out to get the videos and then present those to the client, or does the server send the client a reference to the video server so that they are accessed directly?
As the user's browser loads the page, the page contains references for the images. The images URL is there in the returned HTML which is generated from json object returned by Brightcove and the HTML page sent to the users browser is generated on our end.
What we are doing is, as we generate that HTML page on the server, we replace the initial part of the URLs for the images with https://www.domain.com/brightcovethumb/
2)", the site makes a JSON API call to brightcove .... the thumbnail images & video are not loading"
PHP or other code on the app server does those API calls? or JavaScript on the client side? Correct in this case its Coldfusion which is server side code.
Do you mean to say that the HTML and/or JavaScript has the wrong URLs? in which case you would be asking about "Stream Profile"
I tried the stream profile and it didn't work.
From the F5 perspective
the users browser will request images from https://www.domain.com/brightcovethumb/*
it needs to intercept these calls and proxy to the brightcove URL http://brightcove.vo.llnwd.net/*
