HTTP Class profiles ceased to exist in 11.4, they've been replaced by HTTP Policies. In versions using HTTP Class profiles consider them to be the link between LTM and WAM.

 

Client -> VS -> TCP Profile -> HTTP Profile -> HTTP Class -> WAM Host Map -> WAM Policy -> HTTP Class -> Pool -> Server

 

When the HTTP Class profile match rules match the traffic and the Web Acceleration tickbox is on the traffic goes from LTM -> WAM. In WAM the Host Map then directs the traffic to the correct policy. It matches the Host: header and picks the appropriate policy to use for acceleration.
