how to configure Static App Tunnel Parameters in APM
I have just applied %host% in host parameters to take a dynamic source loopback IP from F5 APM to reach the actual destination MyPC and let the ports get mapped automatically.
I have sent email to users to check the behavior after this change, will post the results tomorrow.
Can I put any 127 IP in %....% like %127.x.x.x" just to make it look and behave like old Firepass?
One more thing, can I give access to directories (Folders) using App Tunnels to the users, as the main option has been deprecated in APM? or is there any other way?
Kind Regards, WUM

On Mac and Linux it's always 127.0.0.1 for all resources. You may use session variables, including custom, but only for the fields you see on resource configuration page. Maybe there is undocumented ability to specify tunnel's local IP, but I don't know about. The main use case is using DNS Helper: you just use real host names, and DNS Helper substitutes tunnel IPs dynamically. So, if you need my.corporatesite.com, you launch tunnel and go to my.corporatesite.com.
