As I answered previously, you can't hide port number, Only default ports are hidden...

 

the solution provided by Kay listen on https default port (443) and user must provide a cookie containing pool member port number. (this cookie may be inserted in a HTTP_RESPONSE event of the first VS instead of redirecting to this port)

 

This solution does not create 8 VS but only 1 balancing connections based on this cookie value.

 

This is the easiest workaround to solve your issue...
