Same VIP Multiple SSL Certs

OK, Here is what I thought as a workaround for this issue.

 

I have 4 application with same public IP assigned to them and I am using one VS for these apps to communicate, So Im having trouble using Certs..

 

 

I have 2 options that I can choose from, but I will need your help in opting the correct.

 

Option 1: I will create a new domain, New VS, New Public IP assigned to to and also create a Cert for it. let's say I will create a domain like:

 

 

Step 1) myarea.mysite-ip.com

 

Step 2) create SSL Cert for myarea.mysite-ip.com

 

Step 3) assign New Public and VIP and assign the same pool my other 4 apps are using.

 

Now for the kill:

 

Step 4) I will write a iRule which will redirect http://app.mysite-ip.com.aa to https://myarea.mysite-ip.com/homepage, and so on for the other 3 apps.

 

 

Option 2:

 

Everything remains the same and in option 1, but here I will use the same Public IP to register the my new domain ie., myarea.mysite-ip.com, and create a new HTTPS VS with the Pool members, and when a request comes to http://app.mysite-ip.com.aa I will have a iRule to redirect it to https://myarea.mysite-ip.com/homepage.

 

 

Which option is better, option 1 or option 2
