clarification on SNAT and automap
Hi All,
I thought I understood SNAT very well but now I am really confused about SNAT and automap. I wish SNAT is called client NAT and Server NAT depending on which address gets NATed.
Here is my scenario. I have few web servers whose default gateway is the router and not the F5. I want to SNAT the client IP to a LTM IP so that the return traffic from the server is seen by F5 before getting to the client.
Do I set up a SNAT or SNAT pool or a SNAT translation list?
If I turn on automap, it works fine but I do not want to change the source IP as the F5 IP on the return traffic to the client. I want to preserve the server's IP.
Is iRule is the only way?
