Well, technically I can ping it, the next hop is a firewall.

 

The firewall blocks it but I can see it from the logs.

 

Also, what's weird is, I ssh to the F5, telnet 192.168.30.250 5000 and it shows connected. Upon checking the firewall, this telnet traffic comes from internal interface of F5 192.168.1.100.

 

I guess that sort of proving the network connection is there?

 

It's just that when client fires off the application, hits the Virtual Server, but then F5 refuses to use the internal interface to reach destination server thus being blocked by the firewall.

 

Any idea?
