Nimbostratusssl offloading question
Hey guys,
Silly question not sure why I am guessing myself here. But, on the LTM the ssl profile - client and in the certificates that get uploaded to the ltms, they contain only the private key and cert correct ? and there is no public that gets stored on the LTM ?
Thanks

When viewing the "key" of the cert, that is the private key. When viewing the "certificate", that is your public key. Keys(Private key) does not get generated by the cert(public key), its the other way around. You generate a private key. Then you create a CSR using that private key to request a corresponding public key to be issue from a CA(certificate authority).
- Brad_Parkerwhen you say public are you referring to the public intermediates and roots or your public key(certificate)?
DEJ_159363Hello,
Your generic client profile SSL is made up of the basic four settings/items: server cert, server key (private key), ca chain, defaults-from.

bigipjr28_13978In general, the certificates that get uploaded to the ltms..the keys that get created from the cert. In the key tab I think when viewing the certificate..is that the public or private key? I thought the f5 only holds the private key?
