This feature is supported only on the new Default profiles. For more information about these profiles, seeEnhanced SSL Profiles Infrastructure Overview.

监视器继承全局设置或the settings of the service to which it is bound. If a monitor is bound to a non-SSL or non-SSL_TCP service, such as SSL_BRIDGE, you cannot configure it with SSL settings such as the protocol version or the ciphers to be used. Therefore, if your deployment requires SSL-based monitoring of the back-end servers, the monitoring is ineffective.

You can have more control over SSL-based monitoring of back-end servers, by binding an SSL profile to a monitor. An SSL profile contains SSL parameters, cipher bindings, and ECC bindings. For example, you can set server authentication, ciphers, and protocol version in an SSL profile and bind the profile to a monitor. Note that to perform server authentication, you must also bind a CA certificate to a monitor. To perform client authentication, you must bind a client certificate to the monitor. New parameters for the “bind lb monitor” command enable you to do so.

Note

The SSL settings take effect only if you add a secure monitor. Also, the SSL profile type must beBackEnd.

Monitor Types that Support SSL Profiles

SSL profiles can be bound to the following monitor types:

HTTP
HTTP-ECV
TCP
TCP-ECV
HTTP-INLINE

To specify an SSL profile while adding a monitor by using the command line

At the command prompt, type:

              add lb monitor   -secure YES -sslprofile  set lb monitor   -secure YES -sslprofile  
             

Example:

              add ssl profile prof1 -sslProfileType BackEnd add lb monitor mon1 HTTP -secure YES -sslprofile prof1 
             

To bind a certificate-key pair to a monitor by using the command line

At the command prompt, type:

              bind monitor  -certkeyName  [(-CA [-crlCheck ( Mandatory | Optional ) | -ocspCheck ( Mandatory | Optional )]
