About Routing

Hello, Here is my structure: My F5 can ping 192.168.1.1 through 10.10.10.254 But why Win(192.168.1.1) can't ping 10.10.10.254 ?   Any help is appreciate.

Because F5 is not a router, when you create a virtual server it accepts traffic which has the destination of that virtual server. 

When you ping another interface other than where you come from it will not reply. I think it is normal.

"LTM is considered to be default deny. This means that when no traffic processing objects are configured, for example, a virtual server and a pool, the BIG-IP system will not process any network traffic. You need to configure at least one traffic processing object on the BIG-IP system to begin processing traffic."
