SSL profiles

An SSL profile is a group of settings that allows the device to manage the application-specific SSL
traffic. The basic function of an SSL profile is to offload certificate validation and verification tasks.
You can create an SSL profile with all the related parameters, and associate the profile to the SSL
port on a virtual server.

Creating SSL profiles

To create an SSL profile, ensure that the SSL key and SSL certificate have been created and
uploaded to the device. An SSL profile contains all the SSL-related configuration parameters such
as the RSA key pair, cipher suite and the digital certificate for the SSL connection. An SSL profile
can be bound to the SSL port on a virtual server.
