are you getting an error message on the F5, or is your browser throwing not-trusted errors after you update the certificate?
can you share the issuer of the server certificate you received? run 'openssl x509 -text -noout | grep Issuer' - after running the command, paste your certificate text and hit 'enter' - this should result in a line similar to - 'Issuer: C=US, O=Network Solutions L.L.C., CN=Network Solutions Certificate Authority'
as you mentioned, you should be able to use the server-cert+intermediate-certs+root-cert(opt.) as the certificate portion of your SSL certificate in the F5 configuration. alternately, you can simply specify the server-cert in the certificate portion of the SSL certificate file in the F5 configuration, and use the intermediate-certs+root-cert(opt.) as a certificate bundle that is specified as the "chain" in the client-SSL profile.
