How to match custom SSL based applications

L4 Transporter

I'm trying to tag a particular application protocol that used TLS/SSL as a security wrapper.

The most accurate way I can ID this application protocol is to match against the FQDN subjectName returned by the server during the certificate handshake.

I've setup a custom App-ID configured as:-

Parent App: ssl

Port: tcp/443

Pattern Match: Context: ssl-rsp-certificate, Pattern: server\.domain\.com

but this isn't matching.  I've also tried using the Context type: ssl-rsp-server-hello and this too fails.

I have confirmed with a tcpdump that this string is present in the server response.

Any clues greatfully received!

show session all filter source x.x.x.x destination y.y.y.y

What does the application get identified as?

Maybe try:

Pattern Match: Context: ssl-rsp-certificate, pattern server.domain\.com

Hi,

I have to solve the same problem : identifing an internal application using ssl certificate CN, but defining a custom application, overriding ssl app and matching ssl-rsp-certificate don't work.

Any other idea to use certificate CN to identify a web-based ssl application ?
