We have 2 BigIP on 2 different locations for redundancy, each one has a public ip address, and the floating one.

 

 

The config sync is on a different network, but one of our network failover unicast are using the public IP.

 

 

We use the floating address as a default gateway for our web servers in a pool that use a VIP (the VIP, the external and internal VLAN are on the same subnetwork)

 

 

I'm afraid if I allow none on those IP, my web servers won't be able to use the gateway any more for 80 and 443.

The self-IP is being used as the gateway but is not the destination for your traffic. As an example, are you currently doing allow all or allow default? If you're allowing default, port 80 isn't allowed.
