Hi, I’m trying to get the community F5 external LB “plug-in” working and seem to have hit a wall with our configuration. The F5 has a self-signed cert and as such the F5 service can’t log in, it reports a 404 error. I’ve dug around a bit online to see if anyone had and solved this problem but haven’t found anything and I’m hoping someone has an idea on how I can get this feature working with the self-signed certificate?
I wouldn’t image you’d get a 404 if there was a TLS error so I’d imagine that isn’t your problem.
If it is, the only thing I can think of is to somehow have the certificate installed and trusted in the external-lb container that’s launched - but this will of course be temporary and things will revert on destroy and create.
It’s Alpine Linux but I believe it’s roughly the same process as many other distros:
- Drop the certificate here: /usr/share/ca-certificates
- Run
update-ca-certificates
I’ve never done this myself so some trial and error may be involved.
