Hi Jacob,

 

If you look at the "ServerHello" message, I bet you will see that the BigIP has chosen a DH cipher. The clue to this is that there is a "Server Key Exchange" message (see frame 5). This means that the encryption key that is chosen is also based on information that only the server knows. You can either change the accepted range of ciphers on the BigIP to not include any DH cipher or alter the client to not propose DH ciphers to make decryption possible. If both options are not possible, then I'm afraid you won't be able to do decryption.

 

Cheers,

PS  If you come to Sharkfest, I am giving a presentation on "SSL troubleshooting" that includes this example amongst other things :-)

Subject: [Wireshark-users] TLSv1 vs SSL3.0 decoding issue

Hello,

 

I am unable to decode a SSL capture that is using TLSv1. This is an application connecting to a BigIP VIP. I then used an IE browser to connect to the same VIP and it decoded it just fine. I usually have no issues decoding SSL but I can't decode this one and tried several captures from the beginning to make sure I get the initial key exchange. And of course the private key is correct because it work when using my IE browsers. Any ideas would be great. Here are some capture excerpts.
