Hi,
Many possible causes for this problem.
You have a HTTP and a HTTPS virtual server. Is there a HTTPS redirect iRule configured on the HTTP virtual server?
Is SNAT configured on the virtual server? A ping from the F5 uses the self IP of the F5 node as the source. If SNAT is configured, this SNAT address is used for connections to the backend server.
You say you cannot see traffic from the F5. How did you check this? With a tcpdump on your F5 node? Or do you check the logging of the internal firewall?
When you use the URL, do you see the correct virtual server being hit?
I would use tcpdump to check if you see traffic coming in on the correct virtual server on the inbound interface and do the same on the outbound interface.
