Real quick question. Configuring a new site which will be supported by a F5 load balancer that is handling the SSL certs. The site will be mixed protocol with a few secured pages but the majority of pages will be http. Now, my understanding of F5 is it strips the protocol off and all communication with the servers occurs over http:80. My question is, is there a way to detect that a user's connection is secure based on this situation. Will the normal channels of detection work or are we to just assume that the load balancer has done it's just correctly. Also, please correct me if I've stated anything incorrectly. Thanks.
