SSL offloading support for Internet Explorer 6

In some cases the Internet Explorer 6 web browser may be able to access real servers. To resolve this issue, disable the ssl-send-empty-frags option:

config firewall vip

edit vip_name

set type server-load-balance

set server-type https

set ssl-send-empty-frags disable

end

You can disable this option if SSL acceleration will be used with an old or buggy SSL implementation that cannot properly handle empty fragments.
