Can remote ltm VS as a node?

Hi Ken,

 

Have you checked to see if that source IP is reaching the remote VS at the remote LTM?

Yeah.

 

 

tcpdump is your friend in all cases.

 

 

Perform a tcpdump at each point (i.e. the local LTM and the remote LTM) looking for the bi-directional traffic (Should be easy. Sounds like a SYN/ACK isn't getting back). Possibly your remote LTM doesn't have a route back to the self-ip? Or the remote LTM isn't doing SNAT and you don't have a route back from the poolmember to the local SNAT via the remote F5?

Hey guys,

 

 

looks like it was as simple as setting up a egress snat pool. turns out it wasn't using the right IP when using autosnat.

 

 

Thanks all!

Thanks for posting the solution. It sounds like there wasn't a floating self IP on the egress VLAN:
