AFM NAT vs LTM NAT
This feature seems to have creeped up somewhere in the 12.x release for AFM? Or maybe it's been there but I've never seen it...
Anyway are there any documents or articles that discuss what happens if there are conflicting AFM NAT rules vs the LTM NAT Rules? Or even with SNAT? If I was using my F5 as a gateway to the internet would I still be creating a wildcard VS with SNAT on it to translate private addresses to public or would I use an AFM NAT rule now? Does the order these are applied in reflect the order in which a packet hits each module on the BIG IP?
