LC no longer supporting HTTP fallback
You are using the HTTP::header and pool commands correctly so they should OK.
Have you looked at the output from your log messages? If so, are they looking correct?

Eclipse IDE plugin (v2) is now available and add supports for iControl LX and iApps LX. New features require BIG-IP 13.1.
 
See https://devcentral.f5.com/s/articles/f5-editor-eclipse-plugin-v2-29402
 
How do we report bugs against the plugin?
When you supply a fqdn as the bigip to attach to, that host name is not used in the Host: header for the REST calls.
In most cases this is not an issue. However, when you have a transparent proxy device in path that plays with IP addresses and makes decisions based on L7 content (idk, something like an LTM perhaps) it can block communication. If an fqdn is supplied as the device destination, it should be provided in the Host: header. It should also be used in the SNI attribute for TLS as well. I didn't check that part though.
The Windows only iRule Editor does properly supply the Host: header with the correct fqdn.

A few answers...
The "Failed to retrieve version info" error occurs when trying to connect to a Big-IP version prior to 11.6, but note that the F5 plugin is currently only compatible with version 12.1.
Walter, yes, you can use a plugin like EGit or SVN Team Provider to source control the resources within a F5 project. You can use the source control plugin perspective, the "Resource" perspective, or once a repository is configured, the "Team" context menu within the F5 perspective. Please note though, resources (iRules and ILX files) don't appear on the local file system (to be source controlled) until an edit buffer is first opened for the resource. Also, the F5 plugin doesn't yet include facilities for importing from a repository into an F5 project - resources either originate from a connected Big-IP or by creating a new resource via Eclipse.

I faced an issue while try to use this one. Weird thing is that Eclipse try to connect use TCP Port "7" for some BIG-IP Addresses. I don't know why but it uses Port "443" for some MGMT IP but it also uses Port "7" for some MGMT IP. In case of using port "7", Eclipse was not able to access MGMT IP.

Will this support integration with an SCM like Git/SVN?
