I want to know the way (if possible) to change the source ip address of the request packet managed by a virtual server for the one of the internal self ips of a LTM bigip(static or floating self ip), ...

May 31, 2008Hi Aaron,
Thanks for the reply.
I will try to explain in more detail what I need to implement.
I have an LTM active-active configuration and I want to perform source address translation on the load balanced traffic sent to an https virtual server (I need to make source address translation because the default gateway on the load balanced web servers isn’t set to the big-ip's floating self ip on the internal VLAN, in fact the web servers are located in a different vlan than the big-ip's internal vlan). But, because my network arquitecture, I need that the translated source address be fixed and different for each active big-ip node, the ideal would be to use the active floating self ip of each node for the translated source address. It is possible to implement that using SNAT in an active-active configuration? please can you explain the way to make that?
Another doubt I have, in an LTM active-active HA configuration, it is possible to set a different default gateway or route table for each big-ip node?, I need to implement that to ensure traffic return along the same path (router) it entered.
Thanks you a lot.
