How does F5 virtual server forwards request based on LTM policies to another virtual server
Hello Everyone, I just wanted to know how the forwarded virtual server (the request forwarded by one VS to another VS using either iRule or LTM policies) works in the context of a TCP in f5 big-ip?...
Thanks for the insight and information about the virtual server forwarding in f5 big-ip.
Regarding the zamroni777 - for your config, client doesn't create a second TCP connection to second VS. I verified there is only a single TCP connection between the client and the destinated virtual server (192.168.180.129:80)
So about the statement, it's simply forwarding within the LTM, When viewed from the packet capture on the f5 big-ip with the host of virtual server ip - 192.168.180.129.
On the second SYN flagged as OUT, what does that mean where the source IP is the actual client and the destination is the virtual server with port 8080?
Does this mean f5 big-ip forwarded the whole TCP connection of the client (192.168.100.28) from the VS listening on port 80 to another VS listening on port 8080 (as per above conversation)? If it is so then shouldn't the identification number of the packet be shared between the communication of the actual client and the f5 big-ip virtual server?

Essentially, yes, but keep in mind that there are essentially two halves of each flow because BIG-IP is a full-proxy. Packet data is serialized/deserialized between them. This article may help explain it:
newbie Sadly you cannot create a user on the BIG-IQ and push it to the devices it manages. The only user modifications that you are capable of doing from the BIG-IQ to the BIG-IP is changing the default admin and root users password. You might be able to create a script that uses REST API and you feed it a list of devices to connect to and make the change. The following link has the command to create a new user on the BIG-IP using REST API under the section "Creating a new BIG-IP system user account" about halfway down the page.
Nikoolayy1 Nice to see that this is hidden as much as possible. Also nice to see that it is the exact same thing that I recommended but in an existing script on the BIG-IQ. About the only thing I don't like about this script is that it has the credentials listed in the file at the top in clear text. I'm sure if I spend enough time I might be able to figure out how to reference a credentials file and run it from a management station instead. Did I mention that I dislike the BIG-IQ?
BIG-IQ gets this bad reputation because of the strange design choices that the developers had compared to BIG-IP 🙂
Still also the bash script curl command can use a token not the username and password as first the token is generated and saved to a file on the big-ip by the script then it can be referenced.

Hello Everyone,
I just wanted to know how the forwarded virtual server (the request forwarded by one VS to another VS using either iRule or LTM policies) works in the context of a TCP in f5 big-ip?
And on the last forwarded virtual server where the requests are destinated, why don't we need to specify the exact service port of the node on the virtual server service port?
This is the configuration of the virtual server:
VS-LINUX-HTTP
VS-LINUX-HTTP-8080
Used LTM Policies:
The actual client IP - 10.250.250.6 Destinated Virtual Server: 192.168.180.129:80 (VS-LINUX-HTTP) Forwared to virtual server - 192.168.180.129:8080 (VS-LINUX-HTTP-8080) Node IP: 192.168.180.226:3000
When the user with IP address 10.250.250.6 destinated to virtual server with IP address 192.168.180.129 listening on port 80, based on the attached LTM policies, all the requests are directed to a virtual server with IP address 192.168.180.129 listening on port 8080. However, the service port listening on node is 3000 on the virtual server - 192.168.180.129:8080
With the packet captured in F5 BIG-IP, there are two SYN packets flagged as IN and OUT from the same source IP: 10.250.250.6, one for the port 80 and the other for the port 8080.
Outgoing SYN: SYN packet initiated by a device (usually a client) to establish a connection with another device (usually a server).
Incoming SYN: SYN packet received by a device (usually a server) from another device (usually a client) attempting to establish a connection.
As per my understanding, on the basis of the wireshark illustration, the client 10.250.250.6 initiated a second TCP connection with the forwarded virtual server 192.168.180.129:8080, right?
I also checked the active connection on the f5 big-ip and correlated it with the packet capture. The f5 big-ip didn't displayed the forwarded virtual server (192.168.180.129:8080) connection as the virtual server address and port only the initial virtual server - 192.168.180.129:80 was displayed.
Regarding the forwarded virtual server 192.168.180.129:8080, we don't necessarily need to configure the actual service port of the node (192.168.180.226:3000) on the virtual server until and unless the actual service port pool is attached to the destinated virtual server, since all the requests will be forwarded to the destinated virtual server.
So I want to know exactly how the forwarded virtual server works in context of a TCP in f5 big-ip? Does it complete its initial TCP handshake with the first destinated virtual server, and based on iRUle or LTM policies, a second TCP connection is initiated with the forwarded virtual server?

Thanks for the insight and information about the virtual server forwarding in f5 big-ip.
Regarding the zamroni777 - for your config, client doesn't create a second TCP connection to second VS. I verified there is only a single TCP connection between the client and the destinated virtual server (192.168.180.129:80)
So about the statement, it's simply forwarding within the LTM, When viewed from the packet capture on the f5 big-ip with the host of virtual server ip - 192.168.180.129.
On the second SYN flagged as OUT, what does that mean where the source IP is the actual client and the destination is the virtual server with port 8080?
Does this mean f5 big-ip forwarded the whole TCP connection of the client (192.168.100.28) from the VS listening on port 80 to another VS listening on port 8080 (as per above conversation)? If it is so then shouldn't the identification number of the packet be shared between the communication of the actual client and the f5 big-ip virtual server?
