Hi eLeCtRoN​ Where F5 can do URL masking easily using iRules like given below, but as your target from where content will be taken is an IP address, did you tried to configure the pool using that IP and test the functionality? It will be easier option I feel.

Ref HOST Masking iRule

when HTTP_REQUEST {
   
   if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "abc.com" } {
     
      HTTP::header replace Host "xyz.com"
   }
}
