F5 Server SSL Profile using TLS 1.0 instead of TLS 1.2
Hi I have an F5 virtual server that does SSL inspection so it has a client ssl profile and a server ssl profile. The backend server is running on a Windows Server 2019 / IIS and it only accepts TLS 1.1 and 1.2 clients. Since the F5 acts as a client in this case towards the Windows Server 2019, I have created a server ssl profile which forces the F5 to use TLS 1.2 only (SSL Proxy is disabled). My problem is that during the Client Hello from the F5 towards the Windows Server, TLS 1.0 is used. So the backend server immediatelly sends a RST ACK without sending Server Hello for supported ciphers etc. While doing a capture on Wireshark, I saw that TLS 1.0 is used. And further down in the same TCP packet it mentions TLS 1.2. This is driving me crazy. Is there any way we can enforce F5 to use 1.2 only during Client Hello?Solved11KViews0likes32Comments
