It sounds like you *need* port translation enabled on this virtual server because you have your pool members listening on port 443 - without translation they won't be able to accept that traffic (they'll be passed 31658, not 443).

 

 

Also, from a best practices standpoint, I'd strongly prefer to simply stand up two virtuals, one for each port. Then point both of them to the same pool. Having a virtual server open on all ports isn't needed here, and it's much more secure to have dedicated services defined.
