F5 redirection

Question

I have created a virtual server IP x.x.x.x and applied the irule, when HTTP_REQUEST { 
&nbsp;       HTTP::redirect https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri] } for SSL redirection. However when I browse to domain.com (IP address x.x.x.x) My browser receives "there is a problem with this website's security certificate" because its the internal F5 certificate that is being presented. If I choose to continue with this certificate it pulls up the correct url with the correct SSL certificate. How do I overcome this issue? Thanks Keith

&nbsp;  are you off loading the ssl to the ltm? If so, did you create an ssl profile and assign to correct virtual server?

Yes we are offloading the SSL to the LTM and created a client ssl profile with the proper certificate.

&nbsp;  did you change\assign that ssl profile to the virtual server?

kfenske_50686 · Answer

Yes as a SSL profile on our SSL virtual server not the initial virtual server mentioned. Initial virtual server redirect to the SSL virtual server via the irule.

Thats is the same way I have it configured. Let me explain a little further. http://www.domain.com resolves to ip x.x.x.x forwards via irule to https://www.domain.com just fine. http://domain.com resolves to the same ip x.x.x.x above but doesn't forward to https://www.domain.com. I get the  "there is a problem with this website's security certificate" because its the internal F5 certificate that is being presented.
