The HTTPS VIP has to be setup or it will not work. It requires a clientside certificate or the F5 will not be able to decode the traffic. An analogy would be a garden hose with SSL being the hose itself. The HTTP conversation is the water through the hose. If the F5 cannot see the water it cannot redirect it. In other words if the F5 cannot see the HTTP traffic , it is unable to tell the client that you need to go here instead, being the redirect.
