400 Bad Request...The plain HTTP request was sent to HTTPS port

All,

 

I have a VIP listening on 443 and ClientSSL profile applied to it. I have a pool member listening on 443 as well as 80, (its a cloud server).

 

My direction is to use SSL between my F5 and cloud server since its external. How could i achieve this without disturbing other pools( i'm using iRule to select different pools).

 

Here is my result of curl command

 

curl

Any help is appreciated! Thanks

  • If you have SSL between F5 and your pool member then you need to apply a server ssl profile too, otherwise F5 will do SSL offloading and send the requests in clear HTTP to the server.
