iRule "Sorry server" pool change from SSL to non-SSL?
Hello DevCentral -
I am working with a team member on something that has turned into a rather unusual request. For our normal service, the client connects SSL, we break that connection, insert some cookies, and re-encrypt to the back-end pool members. So it's SSL (browser)=>LTM=>SSL (pool member). Now we'd like to server up some nicer content if no pool members are available. We have a new pool defined serving up the content, and I am using the following iRule:
when LB_FAILED {
if { [active_members my-pool-443] == 0 } {
pool sorry-pool-80
}
}
This does not work as expected since we're doing the re-encryption. Is there any other option than running SSL on the sorry server?
Thanks!!!
