SSL RST Server side

Hi, I have HTTPS-HTTPS virtual server, the connection between the client and the VS it seems fine (3WHS completed and SSL Handshake is negotiated and sent application data) But regarding to server-side connection the server RSTs the traffic after the F5 sends the client-hello. actually I don't know why server RSTs the F5 SSL hasndshake.

  • It's possible the server can't find a compatible cipher suite although I would have expected a failure response. Have a look at server logs also determine what cipersuites your server will accept, try connecting from the F5 directly using curl or openssl s_client and run openssl see if you can connect with a broader suite.
