Hi John,

 

Nice introduction! You mentioned that another Lightboard Lesson is on the way. No to hard to figure out it will be about SSLO :-)

 

If I may ask to include some info about this topics:

 

  1. Is that mandatory to use two separate physical interfaces for each L2 service
  2. Is there a way to easily add AWAF/DDoS L7 policies if Inbound SSLO is configured
  3. Is there a way to add APM pre-authentication in case of Inbound SSLO
  4. What is best practice to modify already configured Service Chains
  5. When it makes sense to include any service in Non Intercept Chain - as far as I understand the idea, traffic processed by this chain is not decrypted so it seems to not make sense to include any service here?
