Single Appliance Installation—Single-Port Mode
A single SSL device provides SSL offloading and processing for an entire server farm. This
mode of operation is designed to be used in conjunction with Layer 7 switches. Additionally,
the content switch must be configured to provide the filtering and security methods
because the SSL appliance cannot prevent plain or clear text access to your server's secure
data while in this mode.
