BigIP Remove the source address of host
Hi,
I have problem with F5 BigIp, i have created vip ip address (192.168.1.3) for two nodes (192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.2)
any client ( example 10.1.1.1) access the virtual ip (192.168.1.3) will be shown at the servers as ip address of BigIp not the client address( 10.1.1.1), how can i let the BigIP show the ip address of host instead of ip address of self ip.
i have attached one photo for clarification
thanks BigIP expert :):):)

if traffic is http, x-forwarded-for is applicable. so, u don't need to change pool member's default gateway and virtual server can have snat automap setting. anyway, u know, u've to modify server logging to pick up client ip address from x-forwarded-for http header. - al_kabeer_2905

have you done this before ( x-forwarded) ? - nitass

yes, on bigip. i never modified logging on server-side. anyway, your server team should know since x-forwarded-for is not a new thing. :-) - al_kabeer_2905
