Reencryption, what if the certificate on the server expires ?

We use Re-encryption to a web site. SSL offload and then re-encrypt to web server. The re-encryption is not that important but a requirement, wondered what would happen if the Server certificate should expire ( the last certificate ) client --> LTM --> Server Would LTM still re-encrypt using the expired certificate on the server?

 

application delivery
certificate expired
encryption
LTM
ssl

    vineyard,

     

    yes it would, if you're using the default serverssl profile that is. this profile does not perform any validation of the server ssl certificate.

     

    Hope this helps,

    Perfect. Created a new serverssl profile with Expire Certificate Response control set to ignore. Just what we needed, thanks.
