Question regarding the SSL/TLS cipher and Certificate
Hi Folks, I have two question regarding SSL/TLS cipher and Certificate. We used the same ssl profile with same cipher suite on two different F5 VSs, and we tested SSL/TLS by Qualys SSL Labs. But we saw the different report. One of the website got the A grade, but the other website got the B grade, because the webpage didn't use the forward secrecy cipher suite. Why do we get the discrepancy report ? The other question: There were several WAF or Load balancer on the same network chain to handle the same traffic for the same website. It was like there is a user send the HTTPS request through the several proxy device and final reach the website. Why the user got the certificate problem If one of the proxy which wasn't placed on the first gave the wrong ssl certificate ? Wouldn't the first proxy unit handling client side ssl handshake? Regards, Ding
Redirect https to https virtual server Certificate question
Hi, i have to redirect a https request to a https virtual server , i have in mind to use an irule as follows: when HTTP_REQUEST { set url [HTTP::uri] if {[regexp {"STRING"} $url]} { virtual /Common/MyVirtual } } To do so , i have to set the HTTP profile (client) to http to be able to assing the corresponding Irule to the VS, but requests doesnt work as i have to select the SSL Profile , here the problem. i created a new SSL client profile and tried to set the Certificate Key chain, but doesnt work ( i think i did it wrong) The source https request is using a certificate, that i can see already stored at the F5 , inside file ca-bundle.crt , also from the source server i was able to get the certificate and tried to create a new certificate , but doesnt work , i think i'm missing the key or something. When creating the certificate it's mandatory to generate it as Certificate Authority? or it can be self? Note: i'm not very good at certificates with F5 , i know how to create irules, manage the F5 and so on .. but i'm lost with the certificates part. Thanks in advance.
