Bug Details

Priority: 3-Major
Status: Verified
Impact Category: SSL Technology

Description

Symptoms

SSL Orchestrator sends reset to the client when an initial ingress data arrives 5 seconds after tcp connection establishment. Reset cause is "cl side error (No error)".

Impact

SSL Orchestrator/BIG-IP rejects the client connection.

Conditions

-- SSL Orchestrator is licensed and provisioned. -- Per-request policy is attached to virtual server.

Workaround

Modify 'tmm.access.prp_global_timeout' sys db value from default 5 seconds to some appropriate value like 30 or 60 seconds. Example: Following command sets this sys db variable value to 60 seconds. #tmsh modify sys db tmm.access.prp_global_timeout value 60

Fix Information

SSL Orchestrator no longer rejects the client's connection if an initial ingress data arrives 5 seconds after TCP connection establishment and per-request policy execution has finished.
