Hi;

What should the URL start with in an ICAP profile? ICAP or ICAPs

The ICAP session between the F5 LTM and the ICAP scanner is encrypted over TLS.

Kindly

Hi @Wasfi_Bounni  , 

Do you mean this URL : icap://${SERVER_IP}:${SERVER_PORT}/virusScan

 

 Or I Miss something.

Yes, exactly Mohamed.

If I am encrypting the ICAP session between the F5 and the ICAP scanner, then the question is:

Is it 

icap://${SERVER_IP}:${SERVER_PORT}/virusScan

or

icaps://${SERVER_IP}:${SERVER_PORT}/virusScan

Hi @Wasfi_Bounni , 

Okay , 

using internal Virtual server you have ( Server ssl profile ) you must add it , by adding it between Bigip and ICap server so >>> Bigip will be able to establish a secure connection with ICAP servers. 

So First add ( server ssl ) on the internal virtual server that sends ICAP requests to your ICAP servers. 

the second thing >>> I haven't seen icaps protocol before. 
So I'm recommending this :  icap://${SERVER_IP}:${SERVER_PORT}/virusScan .

Like I said >>> Bigip can open a secure connection with Icap servers by using server ssl profile in internal virtual servers.

Try this and give me your feedback.
