Let's step back and reassess.

 

 

Are clients contacting your virtual server on port 443 via HTTPS? If so you need a client SSL profile applied to the virtual server and 443 in the destination port of the virtual server.

 

 

Are the web servers behind the BIG-IP also listening on 443 (HTTPS)? If so you need a server SSL profile applied to the virtual server and the pool members should be configured with their respective IPs and port 443. If they are not HTTPS servers, then do NOT apply a server SSL profile.

 

 

At this point, and with no HTTP profile applied, you should be able to access your servers through the BIG-IP VIP. If that works, apply the generic HTTP profile without the iRule. If that works, apply the iRule.

 

 

Can you also post your iRule?
