Opened: Nov 28, 2019

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

After an SSL profile has been removed from a monitor, a monitor instance continues to use settings from the previously-configured server SSL profile, such as client certificate or ciphers or supported TLS versions.

Impact

The previously configured settings, such as certificate or cipher, continue to be used for monitoring pool members, which may result in unexpected health check behavior/pool member status.

Conditions

-- In-TMM monitors enabled. -- SSL monitor configured with a server SSL profile. -- Setting the monitor's 'SSL Profile' parameter to 'none'.

Workaround

An administrator can avoid this issue by ensuring the monitor's 'SSL Profile' parameter specifies a profile (i.e., is not 'none'). Note: In some software versions, changing a monitor's SSL profile from one profile to a different profile may not take effect.
