Hi Mohit, When you balance against the node the LTM looks at all connections on the node even active connections that are not driven through the VIP-Pool connections. When you balancing against a member of pool it only looks at connections that are created and maintained through the VIP-Pool, ignoring other active connections.

 

I hope this helps,
