Does the EdgeADC support SSL Offload?
The EdgeADC fully supports SSL offload, which can be done on a per Virtual Service basis.
To do this, you need to configure it in the Basic Tab of the Virtual Service. This is located in the Real Servers section.
NOTE: The Service Type should be set to Layer 7.
There are two SSL settings available within the tab.
- Virtual Service SSL Certificate
- Real Server SSL Certificate
The Virtual Service SSL Certificate menu allows you to select the certificate that will be used for the Virtual Service. This is a multi-selection menu, allowing you to select multiple SSL certificates for the same Virtual Service.
The Real Server SSL Certificate menu allows you to select the certificate that you want to use for the Real servers. You will note that there is a built-in value of No SSL. This is used when you wish to offload.
The setting may look something like the image below.
Setting the Real Server SSL Certificate menu to No SSL will enable SSL Offload.
