CirrusSSL Offloading
So basically when SSL get offloaded , it is in a plain text and it has to be
forward to any port which understand plain text so when it's again 443 on server. Does it understand traffic ??

CirrocumulusWhen SSL is offloaded to the BIG-IP, the traffic must be sent to a port that is listening for and expecting NON encrypted traffic (port 80). If you send it to a back-end server that is expecting 443, or encrypted traffic, it will not understand it.
HERE is some good info on that topic!
Hope that helps! If it does please up-vote and select this answer, it'd be greatly appreciated!
