SSL::profile

Description

This command allows you to switch between SSL profiles (both client and server).  Note:  If this is done after SSL negotiation, your iRule must use SSL::renegotiate.
Switching an SSL profile requires that the virtual server have one assigned to it to begin with.  This applies to both client- and server-SSL profiles.  You can also use SSL::disable to use SSL selectively.

Warning

Deprecated in BIG-IP Next v20.0.1


Warning:  If you choose an SSL profile with a different key/cert/chain/ca-file from the SSL profile configured under the VS, the cert/key/ca-file must be reloaded, which is very time consuming (about half a second), degrading the SSL TPS performance drastically.

Syntax

SSL::profile <profile_name>

SSL::profile <profile_name>

  • Switch to the defined SSL profile.
