HTTP profile has an option 'Insert X-Forwarded-For' which adds a header when a request is forwarding to a pool member. When a virtual server has iRule with a collect command like SSL::collect, it is affected by the HTTP profile processing. Same issue has an option 'Request Header Erase' available in HTTP profile.
TCP connection is reset, and no response is provided to a client.
A virtual server meets the following conditions: -- ClientSSL profile. -- HTTP profile with option 'Insert X-Forwarded-For' enabled and/or configured option 'Request Header Erase'. -- iRule that has an 'SSL::collect' command in at least two events (e.g., CLIENTSSL_HANDSHAKE and CLIENTSSL_DATA).
Use iRule to insert X-Forwarded-For with an appropriate IP address and/or remove headers configured in 'Request Header Erase' option of HTTP profile.
An issue of a resetting connections due to configuration options 'Insert X-Forwarded-For' and 'Request Header Erase' in HTTP profile no longer happens.
