Request Logging missing SERVER_IP

Using various devcentral articles and the Request Logging Profiles article I've made this template request logging template. It works pretty well, aside from the bold variables. I really need the $SERVER_IP and $SERVER_PORT information. Any ideas to why server and port isn't logged?

 

TMOS version: 13.1.1.5

Request Logging Profile:

Parent: request-log

Request Logging: Enabled

Template: $DATE_NCSA, $CLIENT_IP, $CLIENT_PORT, $VIRTUAL_IP, $VIRTUAL_PORT, $VIRTUAL_NAME, $VIRTUAL_POOL_NAME, $SERVER_IP, $SERVER_PORT, "$HTTP_PATH", "$HTTP_REQUEST", $HTTP_STATCODE, $RESPONSE_SIZE, $RESPONSE_MSECS, "$Referer", "${User-agent}"

HSL Protocol: TCP

Pool Name: syslog_pool

 

Example from the server

client: 203.0.113.245

vIP: 192.168.132.132

server: 172.17.17.15

[05/Jul/2019:12:28:26 +0200], 203.0.113.245, 2825, 192.168.132.132, 443, company_sales_https_vs, , , , "/Assets/Portal/Applications/applications.min.js", "GET /Assets/Portal/Applications/applications.min.js?q=1507g512 HTTP/1.1", , , , "https://domain.local/news/2018/nov/station/", "Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 8.1.0; SM-J530F) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/75.0.3770.101 Mobile Safari/537.36"

    If you were trying to log this information from an iRule, I would say that you've probably chosen the wrong event to log from, e.g. you are trying to log information about the server-side connection before a load-balancing decision has been made. I wonder if you would have more success if you enabled this a response logging behavior?
