FTP Through BIG-IP from Client Behind BIG-IP

Hi, I need to be able to pass FTP, both Active and Passive, through BIG-IP when initiated from a client that is behind BIG-IP and is NATed...do you think iRules plus a Forwarding IP VS can help?   ...

I think with the FTP profile, you shouldn't need a rule. Just create a VIP with an FTP profile and pool, and apply a SNAT. the FTP control data should be updated automatically to the SNAT address.
