Hi Jeremy, Based on your information, the forward-proxy feature may be useful in your scenario described. You may refer to the online documentation on configuring a forward-proxy: http://docs.lineratesystems.com/087Release_2.6.1/100Getting_Started_Guide/Configuring_a_Forward_Proxy

 

There is also more information describing the outbound NAT feature on LineRate: http://docs.lineratesystems.com/087Release_2.6.1/275Administrator's_Guide/Outbound_Network_Address_Translation

 

Note that F5's LineRate supports proxy for TCP and HTTP services only.

 

Please come back if you have further questions.

 

Thanks Madhu
