HTTP/2 only on client side

[rschwarz]

Hello Folks,

I've a question regarding to HTTP/2 on client side connections (HTTP/2 Profile (Server) -> none).

If I try to enable both "oneconnect" and "HTTP MRF Router" I get ...

Error bigip.f5.com mcpd[5774]: 01070734:3: Configuration error: Profile(s) found on /<partition>/<virtual server name> that are not allowed: Only (TCP Profile, ClientSSL Profile, ServerSSL Profile, HTTP Profile, HTTP2 Profile, HTTP Compression Profile, HTTP Router Profile) -> K81313105:

K81313105 -> disable "HTTP MRF Router".

Does it mean WebSocket traffic is possible again?

What I actually want to get at: What's the best practice for only HTTP/2 client-side connections? (HTTP/2 Profile (Client) -> http2)

1. oneconnect disabled and HTTP MRF Router enabled

2. oneconnect enabled and HTTP MRF Router disabled

3. both disabled

Thanks and BR

René

Hello, rschwarz.

Oneconnect must not be used with HTTP/2.

Hello,

Yes I know. For Full-Proxy http2 on client and server side.

But what's the best way if http2 only activated on client side?

Thx

For HTTP/2 client side only option, the answer is 3: both disabled.

OneConnect is not compatible and HTTP MRF Router is supposed to be enabled when configuring HTTP/2 Full proxy.
