When you navigate to the VIP address on port 80 you see a "link broken" error. If you navigate to a pool member IP on port 8081 you see a login page. Tcpdump shows the syn syn-ack process repeated with each browser refresh when traffic going through the LTM. When connecting directly to the pool member you see the syn, syn-ack and data.
