Hi Merry95,

can you track the proper SSL handshake between client and virtual server by running SSLDUMP?

As you have assigned a client-ssl profile there would be a full handshake. And after it is completed successfully the client´s request would be forwarded to the virtual server.

There is no other IP address on your system shared with the virtual servers IP address? There is no related message in /var/log/ltm (run "
tail -f /var/log/ltm
")?

Ask F5 SOL10209 describes using the SSLDUMP utility.

Thanks, Stephan
