I'm still trying to make sure I have my head around this one.
The App server sends a SOAP request directed to https://subdomain.customer.com/atchi/app.cgi. That request needs to be forwarded to a proxy server (does a host or URI re-write need to happen here? Or just send along the original URI/request intact?), the proxy server gets the request and fires it off to the internet.
Wouldn't this be a relatively simple setup? Make sure the App server is routing through the LTM, have the LTM route the App traffic to the proxy (have the proxy set up as a pool member), which would then be firing info out to the internet, and then make sure the proxy is routing back through the LTM when trying to return traffic to the App Server.
Did I miss something there?
