Great work! I managed to deploy successfully explicit proxy for HTTP/HTTPS calls.
Brett, is there a way to control server side encryption separate from the client side without using SSL Forward Proxy features? The problem I'm trying to solve is that I have dev machines supporting clear text only than need to reach resources on the internet that support tls1.2 only. dev machine >> (clear text) >> vIP (LTM Explicit Proxy) >> (encrypted - TLS1.2) Internet Resources
I've tried different ways of using server/client ssl profiles without success. Before going with "tunnel" vIP and SSL Forward Proxy I wanted to see if there is any other way around as from what I read this solution would require additional license.
