First, I recommend using the latest version of the iApp from downloads.f5.com. Currently, that's v1.5.0.

 

You can use tcpdump and ssldump on BIG-IP to look at the traffic:

Or you can use utilities like Fiddler and Wireshark on the client and server side, respectively.

 

You shouldn't need persistence since that's not required in Exchange 2013. The iApp should deploy OneConnect by default; is there a reason you don't want to use it?
