Hi Dave,

 

 

Can you reply with your VS config using 'tmsh list ltm virtual VS_NAME' or 'b virtual VS_NAME list'?

 

 

Can you capture a tcpdump of the traffic? tcpdump -ni 0.0 -Xs0 -w/var/tmp/smb.1.dmp port host CLIENT_IP or host SERVER_IP

 

 

If you need help capturing or analyzing the tcpdump you can open a case with F5 Support.
