Hi Mike,

 

try to attach a "HTTP Compression Profile" (e.g. the default one) to your Virtual Server.

 

This will remove the "Accept-Encoding" header from the forwarded HTTP request, so that the apache/application server believes that the client does not support HTTP compression. When the HTTP response is then passes to your F5, the content will be compressed according to the detailed profile settings.

 

Cheers, Kai
