Hi,

Can you validate the following point:

  • You set an HTTP profile.
  • You set Source Address Translation to "Automap". If F5 is not in inline mode or If F5 is not the default GW of your backend server.
  • If you have multiple backend and your backend is session mode (you authenticate in this server) don't forge to set an persistance profile (Cookie if you enable http profile or source address).

Last point connect to your F5 in cli mode and try to reach your backend server using curl:

curl -i -k https://backendIP/myuri -H "Host: myhost.domain.com"

Regards
