A server SSL profile is the way you have to configure TLS communication between F5-Backend (remember that the TLS communication is iniciated in the client with a TLS Hello message).
This communication could be established only using one certificate-key in your backend server or using a certificate-key in both sides (F5 server-side and backend server).
For this reason, you can have a server SSL profile using certficate-key or not.
# list ltm profile server-ssl serverssl { cert key }
ltm profile server-ssl serverssl {
cert none
key none
}
# list ltm profile server-ssl serverssl-test { cert key }
ltm profile server-ssl serverssl-test {
cert mycert_test.crt
key mycert_test.key
}
There is no specific considerations in your Server SSL configuration.
