Hello J,

 

here are a couple of links that helped me in my current project:

 

https://devcentral.f5.com/articles/converting-a-cisco-ace-configuration-file-to-f5-big-ip-format

 

https://devcentral.f5.com/questions/convert-cisco-ace-to-f5-ltm-health-monitor-52662

What you can do for a custom port is to make a health monitor with "alias port" option. I have done this for custom HTTPS ports like 6443, 7443 etc. If I remember correctly port translation is enabled by default on VS

Hi all,

 

so issue has resolved with doing two things

 

  1. enabling rewrite-uri
  2. using Layer 4 instead of standard in those apps which were not responding even after enabling rewrite option, may be due to some certificate issues btw f5 and the server.
