Hi,

F5 never change server response if you do not create a configuration to do that.

so F5 does not "return Location header" but let it unchanged.

If you want to replace location header, you must create a irule for that.

when HTTP_RESPONSE {  

      Check if server response is a redirect  
     if { [HTTP::header is_redirect]} {  

         Do the update, replacing http:// with https://
        HTTP::header replace Location \  
           [string map -nocase "http:// https://" [HTTP::header value Location]]  
     }  
  }
