Set your pool members to port 0 (or any on web GUI), then any port used by the client to connect to the virtual server will be used by the F5 on the serverside to the pool member.

 

For monitoring you will need to create monitors and set the alias port to the correct port for the monitor to use. This overrides the port set on the pool member, when you set the port to any then you the F5 will prevent you from assigning a monitor without the alias port set as it doesn't know which port to use.

 

For example create a LDAPS monitor and set the alias port to 636 (if that is the port you want to monitor the pool member on) and assign to the pool or pool member.
