SSL HTTPS Headers / App returns HTTP

Good Evening,

 

 

I am an F5 newbie and I am having the following problems.

 

 

The BigIP is configured to do SSL offload and only HTTP is bound to the IIS Server behind the BigIP device.

 

 

Our website has a number of embedded java windows which are generating dynamic HTTP requests.

 

 

Is there any way to replace the generated HTTP requests by removing and inserting HTTPS instead?

 

 

Any ideas?

 

 

Regards,

 

 

Greg.

    sure, use a stream profile with source of http:// and target of https:// and make sure your http profile chunking parameter is set to rechunk.
