Aaron, if you are talking about ssl interception then as per my understandings bluecoat can do this job very well and have no idea about the F5 ADC, Although l would say proxySG that it can transparently proxy the https traffic and send its own cert - key to all clients.
For all clients, proxySG will be the destination server and if the destination is allowed then proxy will create new connection to the OCS on behalf of request sent to in-line proxySG. If the requested OCS is not allowed then ProxySG will deny the request. This is how ProxySG breaks the ssl tunnel.
I have no idea yet that F5 LTM can do the same job as I elaborated above for Bluecoat ProxySG. If I am wrong then request you to correct my understandings.
I also request both of you and all of you to help me for the same task which has given to me today that what solution is best for url filtering ,
I know that bluecoat and its BCWF can do this job for me but due to throughput constraints we are not interested to buy bluecoat ProxySG appliances and Load balancers to block very few websites from the traffic of millions of websites.
Thanks
RGK
