Introduction¶
This guide is about troubleshooting SSL Orchestrator (SSLO), F5’s BIG-IP solution to SSL traffic visibility.
SSLO is a specially licensed iAppLX RPM package that runs atop F5’s BIG-IP Core platform and manages the intricate BIG-IP configuration necessary to provide encrypt, decrypt, policy, and service chain functions.
