How old is the incident. Depending upon the logs that has been flowing in the respective F5, the logs get rotated/archived.
Try the 1st command to see how old files you could see.
The second cmd checks the ip 1.1.1.1 (it could be assumed as node ip Or any ip as a matter of fact) in the uncompressed ltm files.
The last cmd checks on the archived files.
ls -ltrh /var/log/ltm*
cat /var/log/ltm* | grep 1.1.1.1
zcat /var/log/ltm* | grep 1.1.1.1
If you get zero hits, presumably the logs are rotated.
