• Both the virtual server and pool members are required to process SSL connections, and the BIG-IP system is required to perform Layer 7 processing, such as iRule or cookie persistence.

In this scenario, the virtual server must be configured to perform SSL decryption and re-encryption. Configure a standard virtual server and associate Client SSL and Server SSL profiles with the virtual server.
