Accessing Pool members directly

Is there a way to prevent people to access pool members directly that sit behind the LTM? They must use the VIP?

Yes, if you don't have a wildcard listener, the traffic will not route through the LTM without going through a VIP.

Then the F5 cannot prevent the traffic in one armed mode as it is not the gateway to the network.
