Hi
Kindly check the attached, are you meaning that? , but this is a migration from Citrix to F5
In Citrix -------> port 8080 / protocol HTTP and in other VS the protocol is TCP.
How can I make the port 8080 and protocol HTTP ?
Ireda Those are just configuration differences between Citrix Netscaler and the F5 BIG-IP. On the BIG-IP you specify the TCP protocol rather than HTTP in the protocol section and then in the service port if you select HTTP it will auto-assign port 80. In your case you are specifying port 8080 which isn't an auto-populated name for F5 in the GUI so it states "other" rather than HTTP even though your traffic is HTTP. The nice thing about the F5 is it treats traffic from least specific to most specific by using various profiles such as TCP, HTTP, and so on. If on the Citrix you had port 8080 which accepted encrypted HTTPS traffic your VS on the F5 should be IP plus 8080 and then below it populates TCP as you are seeing in your screenshot. The following link has an unsupported unofficial tool that someone created to migrate from Citrix ADC to F5 BIG-IP which is what you are doing by the sound of it.

I personally would not use the tool because it's not supported and you will learn much more by manually migrating the configuration but if you are in a time crunch the tool might be the best path forward.
