Hello Cymru,

 

Please verify that you have applied a client SSL profile and a server SSL profile on the VS.

 

Just to clarify, when you say "SSL Offloading" this means that you only encrypt trafic between the "client and the VIP". In this case you will only put an "client SSL profile" on your VS

 

But if your backends/servers listen on 443 I think that they probably wait for an SSL handshake from the F5. So you will need to add also "server SSL profile" on your VS.¨

 

Regards
