Abstract
A traffic management device (TMD), system, and processor-readable storage medium directed towards re-establishing an encrypted connection of an encrypted session, the encrypted connection having initially been established between a client device and a first server device, causing the encrypted connection to terminate at a second server device. As described, a traffic management device (TMD) is interposed between the client device and the first server device. In some embodiments, the TMD may request that the client device renegotiate the encrypted connection. The TMD may redirect the response to the renegotiation request towards a second server device, such that the renegotiated encrypted connection is established between the client device and the second server device. In this way, a single existing end-to-end encrypted connection can be used to serve content from more than one server device.
