302 redirect RST, ACK

Does anyone know if the LTM sends a RST, ACK if the Location in a server 302 Found Response does not change from the original request?

 

For instance, I have the following setup:

 

Virtual server: fruit.com HTTP Profile: HTTP Rewrite Matching

 

Client Request: GET /apples/oranges/kiwi (no trailing slash) Server Response: HTTP/1.1 302 Found Location: https://fruit.com/apples/oranges/kiwi (no trailing slash) LTM to Client/Browser: RST, ACK LTM To pool member: RST, ACK

 

Thanks.

    The only time i've seen something like this is when the server in the pool is using SSL, but no server side SSL profile is enabled.

    Thanks, Andrew for responding. In this case, the server is listening on port 80.

    I can't find anything to support this right now, but I am pretty sure I ran into a problem years ago where the LTM sends a RST when a 302 from the server had a non-zero content-length

      my mistake, it was a 304 with a non-zero content that was the problem. 302 is allowed to have content.
