Apr 29, 2009I did a testing in my BIGIP. I created a virtual server (outbound_wildcard) and a pool (default_gateway_pool).
outbound_wildcard:
Destination: 0.0.0.0
Type: Perfomrance (Layer 4)
Protocol: All
VLAN Traffic: All VLAN
Default Pool: default_gateway_pool
Address Translation: Enabled
Port Translation: Enabled
SNAT Pool: Auto Map
**NAT List is empty**[\b]
I have setup a server and it's gateway point to my BIGIP. I tried to access the Internet from this server but not succeeded. When I unchecked Address Translation in the Virtual Server (outbound_wildcards), this server can access the Internet. Why?? In addition, why only "Standard" and "Performance (Layer 4)" have Address Translation and Port Translation option???
