    You can use CLI to create the VS (replace "<...>" fields with the correct value).

    tmsh create ltm virtual <VS_NAME> \
destination <VS_IP>:443 \
profiles add { tcp http_20 <CLIENTSSL_PROFILE> } \
vlans replace-all-with { Internal Web } vlans-enabled \
snatpool Prod \
pool Webfarm_pool \
persist replace-all-with { cookie_20 } \
rules { httpTest_irule1 httpTest_irule2 httpTest_irule3 }

    Finally you have to save the config from running-config to startup-config.

    tmsh save sys config

    KR,

    Dario.
