Managing Client-Side HTTP Traffic Using a CA-Signed Elliptic Curve DSA Certificate
Overview: Managing client-side HTTP traffic using a CA-signed, ECC-based certificate
When you configure the BIG-IP system to decrypt client-side HTTP requests
and encrypt the server responses, you can optionally configure the BIG-IP system to use the
Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) as part of the BIG-IP system's certificate key
chain. The
result is that the BIG-IP system performs the SSL handshake usually performed by target web
servers, using an ECDSA key type in the certificate key chain.
This particular implementation uses a certificate signed by a certificate authority (CA).
