Option 2 is the best one to go with but I'm little confused on the STREAM profile. Let's say my public URL for the users to access the VIP is https://publichost.com:8080 Then after the user login they are taken to the backend server pool but it fails because it removed the port number: https://publichost.com/backendURI/

 

In the STREAM profile I added the following to the "target" field (did not use iRule):

 

@https://publichost.com@https://publichost.com:8080@

 

Accessing that URL after the change I'm able to login but getting to the backend server gives me an error message right away: The server did not return a response for this request. Not sure I setup the STREAM profile correctly
