Port Lockdown
Hi:
Really stupid simple question here, but I want to make sure that I have my facts straight on port lockdown before I implement it and I've never worked with it before, so I don't want to upset any of my customers.
The way I understand port lockdown, it only involves traffic that is sourced from a host with the destination address being the F5's self-IP. So if you set the port lockdown setting to None, the Self-IP won't accept any connections with itself as the destination, but traffic going through the Self-IP with another destination will flow just fine ( from a server trying to talk to www.mydomain.com that has F5 set as its default gateway).
Is that correct?
