Premature TCP session ending with SSL transactions

[jtvedte]

Hi,

Is anyone having the same issue as me.I run a custom app on SSL web servers for CC auth. They are balanced by a pair of F5's.The servers intiates the html post to the PIX which sends it to the client firewall and onto their servers. The error below results in skipped transactions.

What could be the cause??

Can anyone help

Thanks in advance.

Try checking out the "timeout" command, but I don't think this is the problem.

The interesting bit is the "TCP Reset". It looks like one end is forcably terminating the connection. Perhaps an IDS box, or the client firewall?
