server has its gwy as bigip floating ip. Hence, the outbound traffic for internet passes through bigip.
but the following command is disturbing me,
pool reversenpath_vlan12_pl { member 63.25.36.1:any }
I understand that a pool basically comprises of servers to which incoming traffic from the client is load balanced.
but here the pool comprises of upstream router IP. and i'm not able to understand, if this pool is for inbound traffic or outbound traffic?
If it is for inbound traffic --->which means, traffic coming from the client to a server in the pool. But the pool here has no server but router IP.
If it is for outbound traffic ---> say, if a server with bigip as its gwy initiates traffic for yahoo.com, how is this pool used?
