Hi Alan

Got it.

I really looked / searched for the corresponding part in the debug, I only found the virtual server proxy-inner-tunnel getting hit. Just for training / future purposes, could you please highlight the corresponding line in the debug output?

And I will try to put the corresponding configuration in another section in the inner-tunnel.

Regards
Dominic
