How to configure F5 as a reverse proxy
Hello Mohammed,
Rewrite profile is not mandatory when passing the traffic through the F5. you can just create LTM objects as you mentioned Node, Pool, and virtual server for each application. Then, make the required change on the hop before the the F5. (for example make a destination NAT on the firewall before that F5 to forward traffic to the virtual server IPs).
And as mayur mentioned, don't forget to make a source address translation in the virtual server settings to avoid any assymetric routing issues.
Everything should work smoothly even if you didn't make any SSL offloading. but in case you will need to make any conditions on the URIs or modifying any HTTP headers or assigning an ASM security policy, you will need to use client SSL and import both certificate and key on F5.
