I'm guessing that the network topology of VMnet1 and VMnet2 are not aligned. This is common with VMware Workstation (but, hey, unsupported!)
I would verify that the configured NIC's MAC addresses line up between the hypervisor and the BIG-IP VE. ping and arp are useful for troubleshooting these sorts of scenarios as well. (I'd try pinging the 10.70 self-ip from my workstation)
to work around, you can do the BIG-IP method or VMware method.
BIG-IP method:
Reconfigure your vlans in BIG-IP. If VMnet2 was supposed to be on 1.2 and VMnet1 is on 1.1, try setting VMnet2 to 1.1 and VMnet1 to 1.2.
VMware method:
you can reconfigure the vlan assignment on the hypervisor side - assign interface 1's vlan to interface 2, and vice versa.
