To ensure that the BEA WebLogic server uses URLs prefixed with HTTPS://, configure the BIG-IP LTM to insert a header named WL-Proxy-SSL: with a value of true into each request. To do this, you can create a profile using the Configuration utility or the command line.
Note: For information about configuring BIG-IP version 4.x, refer to SOL1511: Configuring BIG-IP to add a header so that BEA WebLogic nodes will generate redirects and links that specify the HTTPS protocol.
Configuration utility
To use the configuration utility to create a BIG-IP LTM profile with a BEA WebLogic header insert, perform the following procedure:
Log in to the Configuration utility.
From the main navigation panel, click Local Traffic.
Click Profiles.
From the Profiles screen, click the Create button.
In the name field, type a name for the profile.
From the Parent Profile menu, select http.
In the Request Header Insert field, type the following:
Note: In BIG-IP versions prior to 9.4, this field is labeled Header Insert.
WL-Proxy-SSL: true
Click the Finished button.
