In a custom Client SSL profile what is the purpose of the PassPhrase box?
When the server guys supply certificates to us they also provide a password. The password is needed to successfully import the cert into the F5. When I build a client SSl profile for an App there is also a PassPhrase box and we enter that password in the PassPhase box. My question is do I really need to enter that password in the client ssl profile? What is it used for? The last profile I built I purposely left off the PassPhrase and the VIP still worked. Can you clarify this for me? Thanks.
