Client side SSLoffloading/https redirection

Hello all,

 

 

In this particular scenario we implement client side SSL offloading

 

 

so when the client https connection the BigIP offloads SSL and passes a http connection to the server,

 

 

so what we want to acomplish is is it a possible for the F5 to remember the initial state of the conection that came in and if the client connection was initially a https then direct back the response to the client as https

 

 

please suggest.

 

 

Thank you

  • Hi,

     

     

    It should be doing that anyway. However what you may be seeing is that the server is sending redirects or other content to http within the payload. To solve that, you can either turn on Rewrite Redirects in the http profile, or use a Stream profile (you can search this forum for examples - post back if you get stuck).

  • what would be the best way to verify, that my connection responses are being directed to https?
