routing static content in DEMO - ssl problem?

I've been trying to route static content in DEMO today, but have not been successful. It seems website forces ssl. I set up ssl in my iis and got that working except for the requests that go through bigip. To show that issue - here's some requests from a remote machine:

# this just hangs
asadmin@cb0067-13:~> curl -k 'https://10.222.128.36-443.ip.next.ci.westlaw.com/Platform/js/v1/Search/results/ResultsRenderer.js'
# but this works fine
asadmin@cb0067-13:~> curl -k 'https://10.222.128.36/Platform/js/v1/Search/results/ResultsRenderer.js'

Couple things here...

1. You said DEMO but you're using the CI domain name.

2. You say port 443, but I really think you mean ssl to your static content that is running on port 81, right?
3. Don't forget to accept the ssl cert exception (usually prompted in the browser).

This seems to work ok for me...

Thanks, Mark. I guess I was over-thinking it.

1) yes 2) yes, I guess this means it's an ssl connection to bigip and then http from bigip to my machine 3) yep

Thanks!

Just adding on to the answer shown above, I posted step-by-step instructions on the Static Content hub page at: https://thehub.thomsonreuters.com/groups/cobalt-platform-static-content-community/blog/2014/07/16/routing-static-content-locally-for-ssl-enabled-environments-demoqed?sr=stream
