Try this to see if simple logging on the F5 works & if there are no application issues:

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED { 
    log local0.info "Client Connected, IP: [IP::client_addr]" 
}

when SERVER_CONNECTED { 
    log local0.info "Client: [IP::client_addr], Pool member [IP::server_addr]:[TCP::server_port]" 
}

If there are no issues with the application, then try adding the "log 10.1.1.1" statement. This is to rule out any issues with specific logging to the syslog server.

I think you need to use something like this - basically, swap the position of the address and the "local0.info" statement:

log local0.info 10.1.1.1 "Client Connected, IP: [IP::client_addr]"
