Certificates
Each SSL certificate installed on Equalizer includes a certificate and its associated private key.
In SSL off loading, Equalizer terminates the SSL connection with the client, decrypts the client
request using a certificate and key, sends the request on to the appropriate server, and encrypts
the server response before forwarding it on to the client.
Certificates are uploaded to Equalizer and then associated with one or more clusters. Two types of
certificates may be used to authenticate HTTPS cluster connections:
l
A
cluster certificate
is required to authenticate the cluster to the client and to decrypt the cli-
ent request (these are also called server certificates). For cluster certificates, both a cer-
tificate file and a private key file must be uploaded to Equalizer.
l
A cluster may also be configured to ask for, or require, a client certificate -- a certificate
used to authenticate the client to Equalizer. For client certificates, only a certificate file is
uploaded to Equalizer (no keyfile is used).
