NimbostratusCheck the DNS settings of the F5 and make sure it can resolve the sslvpn fqdn.
Background: We had similar issues, the PPP tunnel kept randomly closing and opening a new one, which caused the clients to reconnect, which in turn caused traffic not flowing while the PPP tunnel did a new handshake.
There were no evidence in the LTM log why this happens, but the Edge client log revealed that DNS lookup for the APM endpoint (LTM VIP) didn't resolve. The client machine actually could resolve it, but the F5 itself couldn't. After changing the DNS servers in F5 to ones that resolved correctly the problem seems to have been solved.

We had similar issue. May I know where you find the DNS lookup failure on BIG IP box? Where the DNS servers change you have done to resolve it?
Thanks in advance!
