F5 LTM question automap

AhmedMS I think it's better to list the instances that you shouldn't use automap and instead use a SNAT pool.

1. If you have a high connection virtual server or F5 LTM. The reason for this is it will exhaust the ephemeral ports on the F5s self IP which is what is used for health monitors and a few other things.
2. If you need to differentiate specific VS traffic from traffic originating from the F5 such as health monitors and anything else it would use the self IP for.

Aside from those two I can't think of any other reason you wouldn't want to use automap.
