Cannot access the internet using a default gateway virtual server
- Nov 28, 2014
You must disable address and port translation on your Virtual Server. These are under the "Advanced" configuration. Without that, all traffic will be forwarded to the pool member using it's IP address as the destination. Moreover, assuming you want to forward more than TCP traffic, you must change the Protocol to "*All Protocols". You almost certainly want to limit the VS to just your internal VLAN (change "VLAN and Tunnel Traffic" to "Enabled on..." and move the internal VLAN to the "Selected" box).
Incidentally, this can be achieved a different way. If you set the BIG-IP default route to 172.16.100.17, you could then use a "Forwarding (IP)" Virtual Server type, which uses the BIG-IP route table to forward traffic.
- May 12, 2016I had the same problem and I found the solution by changing the vmnet0 bridge from automatic to the associated Network Ethernet Adapter. Vmware>Edit>Virtual Network Adapter>vmnet0
Also Linda_01_162621 if "ip address translation" is disabled, the pool will be useful if the virtual server and pool memeber have the same ip address. so in your case it's not necessary to create a pool for ex router.
You need just configure a default route with the gateway (172.16.100.17).
