SSL Termination with clear text response from web server
Hi folks,
This might be a silly question:
We terminate SSL and send traffic to non-secured web servers. We're having some issues encrypting clear text responses on proxy servers before ...
Aaron and nitass,
Thank you both for your replies. I'll try to use the Fiddler2 to check web server response. The idea I had was to take the encrypting/decrypting burden off the web tier completely. This way, if we have any non-secured web server in the pool (Apache, Weblogic, Sun proxy, etc), web tier would do the actual work, while F5 handles ssl between client and itself. I'm not sure that's feasible since we always had encrypted traffic throughout
Anyways, I have a test pool with weblogic server on some non-secured port, which accepts clear text request from F5 and sends clear text response back. The problem is that client comes with ssl thru F5, but sees plain http page.
Thanks, Roman
