    Find the below details, which will help to dril down the output.

      CS is Client Side (Client --> F5)
  SS is Server Side (F5 --> Server)

  cs-client-addr - Client IP
  cs-server-addr - VS IP (VIP)

  ss-client-addr - SNAT IP or Client IP i.e. cs-client-addr
  ss-server-addr - Server IP address

if this connection matches a virtual server with parameter "Translate destination" unchecked, the BigIP route traffic to the destination with the same destination address as the client side destination.

 

this is the expected behavior for Forwarding IP virtual servers.
