I've followed the guide in order to have a simple Forward Proxy WITHOUT SSL inspection.

 

I'm using BIG-IP OS version 13.1.1.4

 

However I get the following error : 503 Service unavailable

 

According to some users on DevCentral, I need the module "SSL, Forward Proxy" to be activated.

 

This configuration works great on my VE Lab license because it includes the SSL, Forward Proxy module !

 

Sadly , I don't think that Stanislas Piron is right when he says that this very module is NOT required for a basic Proxy Forwarding VIP...

 

Any help would be much appreciated.
