Client SSL converion to TLS for the server for LDAP

Are you asking for STARTTLS / LDAP support on the BIG-IP? Current versions do not support it, but I have heard it might be on the roadmap in the future. Let me back up for a second. The client speaks SSL. The server speaks LDAP. Correct? Have you tried setting up a virtual to include clientssl profile WITHOUT an associated HTTP profile? That would cause the bigip to strip off the SSL and just send through whatever the client was sending underneath.
