Thanks Heino,
F5 will not be router for 10.10.10.0/24 network as it will be on switch and pool members(servers) gateway will be switch so we need to use SNAT. I am still not clear on how the routing/switching or traffic will flow.

I seriously hope that SanjayP's answer works foryou, because I can't recommend what I'm about to reply. Absolutely avoid the following if possible. It will only give you a headache.
I've had to resolve a similar problem previously on a competing platform. It wasn't the same though. My VS was in a different subnet, I just had to SNAT to a subnet that would route differently that standard.
Traffic flow:
- I used SNAT to map the communication from reverse-proxy to the server.
- Then I used Policy Based Routing, based on source address (your SNAT pool) to ensure that that network segment is routed through your desired gateway address (10.10.20).
