vCloud Director and VMRC on same VIP

I am fairly new to F5, and could use some design assistance.

 

I currently have an HA pair of F5 with LTM + APM deployed in front of vCloud Director 5.5. I utilized the following link for initial configuration: https://www.edge-cloud.net/2013/05/configuring-f5-big-ip-with-vcd/ written by Christian Elsen. It is an excellent article and our deployment is working great with one exception.

 

The design has the VIP for vCloud HTTPS and Console Proxy on separate external IP Addresses utilizing TCP/443. Unfortunately, we don not have two external IP addresses to spare. So I have the vCloud HTTPS virtual server on the external VIP, and the Console Proxy on the Primary F5's external physical address. This is working, as long as the primary F5 is operational.

 

Any help that could put both of these services on the VIP would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
