Proxies
BIG-IP® Reference Guide 4-91
Figure 4.43 shows the state of the /config/bigip.conf file, after creating an
SSL proxy with SSL-to-Server enabled. Note that the certificate and key
files for client-side SSL connections have also been configured.
Configuring client certificates
This option extends the SSL-to-Server feature by allowing the BIG-IP to
authenticate itself using client certificates. You can thus specify a key file
and a certificate file for the proxy as an SSL client, as it acts on the server
side. When a server-side SSL certificate is specified, the certificate is used
only if the server requests client authentication.
To configure client certificates using the Configuration
utility
Configuring client certificates for SSL-to-Server using the Configuration
utility is similar to configuring the existing client SSL key/certificate pair.
1. From navigation pane, click Proxies.
2. Click the Add button.
3. Check the SSL and ServerSSL check boxes.
4. In the boxes labeled Server SSL Certificate and Server SSL Key,
either type the names of the key and certificate files or select the
names from a list of available key and certificate files.
5. Click Done.
To configure client keys and certificates from the command
line
When configuring SSL-to-Server, you can use the bigpipe proxy command
to designate a key file and a certificate file. This is done as is the following
example:
b proxy 10.1.1.1:443 \
target virtual 20.1.1.10:443 \
clientssl enable \
clientssl key my.server.net.key \
clientssl cert my.server.net.crt \
proxy 10.1.1.1:443 unit 1 {
target virtual 20.1.1.1:https
clientssl enable
clientssl key my.server.net.key
clientssl cert my.server.net.crt
serverssl enable
}
