Providing you have an HTTP profile and a client-ssl profile it will work as F5 is a full TCP proxy. Having both the virtual server and pool members on the same port will not affect the connectivity and the ability off load SSL. &nbsp;

Hi,&nbsp;
Your server backend listen in https too?&nbsp;
in this case it's not ssl ofload but interception and you need ssl client and ssl server profile.&nbsp;

 The server only use port  443. server side do not encryption.&nbsp;
