If I may add, the point is that the F5 doesn't really understand the WSS protocol messages, so the HTTP profile would likely break it. If you don't use an HTTP profile and simply treat the traffic as TCP data, you can offload the SSL and optionally re-encrypt without touching the layer 7 data. It'd be like passing any other non-standard TCP-based protocol through the F5.
