    This can be a bit confusing, but from the help documentation (on a v13 BIG-IP):

     

    "Represents the cumulative number of bits (including all headers) that have been received from (In) or sent to (Out) the pool or pool member."

     

    If you don't see any bits Out, the F5 is not sending any traffic to the pool member.
