Send PAC file to Edge client via HTTPS Hosted Content

Hi All,

 

One of our customers is using the Client Proxy Autoconfig Script feature in a Network Access profile to send a PAC file to a Edge client.

This PAC file is configured as Hosted Content on the F5 and a user has access based on a existing session.

 

https://<hostname>/DMZ/public/share/Proxy/proxy.pac

 

When the Edge clients makes a connection, we can see this URL being send to the client, but when the Edge clients wants to get the PAC file, it connects to the IP-address and the the hostname.

 

https://<IP-address>/DMZ/public/share/Proxy/proxy.pac

 

Because the virtual server has a SSL certificate, the connection fails and the Edge client cannot get the PAC file from the F5.

 

F5 version is: 14.1.2.3 005

 

Did we missed something here? Why is the Edge client connecting on IP and not on hostname?

 

Regards,

Martijn
