Different VIP, different SNAT - based on dest

Hi all,

 

 

Any advice guidance much appreciated.

 

 

We want to configure the F5 as a one armed loadbalancer, with multiple VIPs. Nothing too testing, but I want to set it so that the original request comes in on port 8080, gets forwarded onto the reals on a different port, using a unique SNAT. (The idea being we can run multiple VIPs which will then be assigned unique SNATs.

 

 

So, using an iRule, I figured it would be something like...

 

 

 

when SERVER_CONNECTED {

 

if { TCP::local_port equals 8080 } {

 

snatpool proxy

 

}

 

}

 

 

Where proxy is the name of the SNATPOOL I've set up with just a single address in at the moment. Would add more based on traffic loads. Then adding multiple 'elses' for the other services.

 

 

Am I heading in the right direction?

 

 

Thanks again.
