Hi, First of all, your best option is to use tcpdump to get the exact IPs used in your environment. For example if your authentication server is 10.0.0.1 then:
tcpdump -nni 0.0 host 10.0.0.1
when user tries to do RDP to a server or any kind of session, will he use his IP or it will be the floating or self ip of F5 ? so what IP i should allow access to RDP server on the firewall ?
If you are using SNAT automap then it'll be the floating IP of the exit VLAN from which the BIG IP reaches the server. If there is no SNAT then it'll be the client assigned IP from the lease pool. Again tcpdump is your best friend.
