Eric Chen answered this question in the article SNI Routing with BIG-IP

 

the http requirement was caused by the default "request time" I used in forward pool action... changing to "SSL client hello time" solved this...

 

the ssl-persistence requirement means at least one ssl aware profile must be enabled to support "SSL client hello time" events... ssl-persistence or client-ssl are supported (explained in the article)

 

If SSL persistence is not available in Non-LTM standalone products, use this code.
