NimbostratusHi,
I added a SNAT pool for redirecting the traffic from external LB to internal pool members but it is unable to redirect the traffic? when i do ping it says request time out but never getting an answer. What might be the issue and what could be the probable solution for that?
Thanks in advance
CirrostratusApologies but this doesn't make too much sense. Can you elaborate and provide more detail please?
NimbostratusWe wanted to redirect the traffic from external load balancer (VIP) to the internal servers (pool) (avoiding external servers and internal load balancer) internal in pvt. I have added a SNAT pool list (ip addresses of the internal servers) as the IP for SNAT and added to the VIP but the traffic doesn't seems to flow as per the requirement. I am not sure what the problem is. Please advice
CirrostratusI'm still confused, you want traffic to get to these internal servers but you're also SNATting using those internal server's IP addresses? Sounds bad. So, to try and clarify, what does the path from external Virtual Server to internal server look like? This?
external network > F5 VIP > Router/L3 Switch > server
NimbostratusWhat I can understand is that he applied a SNAT Pool to a VIP. But how is configured your VIP, is it a wildcard VIP ?
Because if you're just testing it with a ping and your VIP is listening on the port 80 for example, you won't get any result.
