I tried the rewrite profile, but I'm still seeing the hosts field come up as site1.domain.com as opposed to site2.sub.domain.com in my packet captures. For me, I don't need the uri replaced, I want that to go through.

 

My rewrite profile is set for client url: https://site1.domain.com/ Server url: https://site2.sub.domain.com/

 

Any idea why the host headers wouldn't be re-written?

From the client device, perform a curl to site1.domain.com and from the F5, perform a curl to site2.domain.com just to see the response from server. This will help you to isolate the problem and troubleshoot further.
