Configuring SSL Termination

SSL termination in a CSS occurs when an SSL module, acting as a proxy server,
terminates an SSL connection from a client, and then establishes a TCP
connection to a server. When the module terminates the SSL connection, it
decrypts the data and sends the data as clear text to the CSS for a decision on load
balancing. The CSS transmits the data as clear text either to an HTTP server or
back to the SSL module for encryption to a configured back-end SSL server.
