When a client makes a request for the VIP, 10.x.y.z, BIG-IP selects a node to send the request to. By default, the BIG-IP doesn't change the node's response headers or data. The node might be sending a redirect to the node's IP address. Or the node might be inserting a hardcoded reference to it's own IP address in the HTTP content.
From your description, it sounds like the node is sending a redirect back to the client and in that redirect, the Location field contains the node's IP address.
Does this sound accurate? If so, is the VIP configured for HTTP or HTTPS (or do you have a pair of VIPs for HTTP and HTTPS)?
