are you looking to offload SSL on the F5 using the web-server's certificate, or are you looking to terminate SSL at the web-server instead of the F5?

in the virtual server configuration of the application's virtual server configured for HTTPS, remove the clientSSL profile and serverSSL profile.
When you remove a client SSL profile from a virtual server, the F5 loses the ability to examine HTTP-level data as F5 is now passing encrypted data through the F5 rather than terminating SSL and re-encrypting to pool members. Therefore, if you use any of the following features/profiles, they will also need to be removed - HTTP, oneconnect, cookie-based persistence, http-compression, stream profile, analytics profile, HTML profile, web acceleration profiles, iRules that use HTTP events/functions, LTM policy profiles that have HTTP-related statements, etc.
