Roger, just in case you don't find that document clear enough I'll quickly break it down for you;
1) You can telnet to the Virtual Server even with the Pool Members down. This is the full proxy in effect, the BIG-IP is terminating your connection and will establish a different one to a Pool Member when it needs to.
2) The TCP three way handshake is completed but the moment you send a HTTP request on this connection, you'll then get the RST. This is normal behavior for a Standard Virtual Server with a HTTP Profile assigned.
3) Use a HTTP monitor (that sends a HTTP request) and this won't occur.
