SSL offloading is when SSL is terminated on F5 on the client-side. This requires a client-ssl profile and HTTP profile assigning to the virtual server.
To re-encrypt traffic to your pools you will need to use a server-ssl profile to encrypt the server-side connection.
Using this method you can manipulate HTTP headers as F5 is in the middle of each SSL termination and is able to provide end to end encryption
