Sending traffic to pool nodes on Secure port?

Hi,

Just need a little information on how the LTM works when sending traffic to pool nodes. I want to offload ssl on LTM but also want to use secure port for backend nodes.

E.g. I want VS to use port tcp/443 but backend pools on 1443, 8443 and other Secure ports. this is so I can use IRULES to manipulate http headers. Also, would I need to install a certificate on the LTM for backend nodes as well?

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Regards,
