Opened: Apr 13, 2017

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

When Network Access is configured in virtual server-to-virtual server targeting, the Edge client cannot connect.

Impact

When Edge client connects, the external-client-facing virtual server issues a request for '/pre/config.php?version=2.0', and the Edge client hangs.

Conditions

Network Access is configured as follows : -- The external-client-facing virtual server has the SSL profile attached. -- The internal virtual server has the Access profile and connectivity profile attached. -- The external-client-facing virtual server has an iRule that forwards the HTTP requests to the internal virtual server.

Workaround

None.

Fix Information

Network Access configuration with Layered-VS now works with Edge Client.
