If you have the server defined to the pool on 443 but do not have a ServerSSL profile configured, the request gets dropped on the floor and you don't get a response. Without a ServerSSL profile the back-side of the VIP can't handle the SSL handshake to the server.

 

That's where I was confused. What in the LTM's config is saying "if pool member is 443, you must connect to it over SSL?"
