4 SNAT pools or a gigantic one?
Hello,
I am configuring Lync 2013 on LTM Viprion and we use 4 different FrontEnd VIPs (with all ports 443, 448, 5061, 5071, 8080, etc).
This is requested by Microsoft design to provide redundancy on FE services.
We expect a rough number of 150k or up to 200k (in some years time) requests distributed in total to all 4 VIPs.
Therefore we planned 20 SNAT IPs, but the dilemma is to use 1 big SNAT pool for all 4 IPs or 4 configure diffrent SNAT pools of 5 IPs for each VIP...
My idea is that having the same gigantic pool of 20 SNAT IPs for all 4 VIPs is more a flexible approach in case a VIP get more requests... What do you think? Will both work?
Does it matter if the same SNAT pool is used by 2 diffrent VIPs?
Thanks.
