CirrusHTTPS redirect issue after login attempt
Hi all, -->the Issue: I faced an issue when i tried to redirect from HTTP to HTTPS, as follow: 1- I access the VS using HTTP 2- I got redirected to HTTPS. 3- I put my credentials and it succeed. 4- but the issue appears when i tried to requested report, I got 302 warning error,
-->troubleshooting: 1- I monitored the statistics of the Virtual Servers, but i found the request went to the HTTP Virtual server (not HTTP VS), Is that Normal?(I saw the same behavior from tcpdump either) 2- I did ssldump at the moment of requesting the report, and found the F5 did redirect but there's no any subsequent traffic from the client, as i got below:
[root@company:Active:Standalone] config ssldump -Aed -nni 0.0 host 197.x.x.x New TCP connection 1: 197.x.x.x(4006) <-> 172.x.x.x(80)

where: 196.Y.Y.Y : the public IP of the domain, 172.x.x.x : the private IP of the VS 197.x.x.x : the client's IP
Note: we i use only HTTP everything goes well and nothing weird.
so what the issue and how we could be able to mitigate it from F5 or either from the server itself.
