The 2 servers are LDAP servers (credential collectors). They authenticate the user then pass it on to a webserver. The webserver only knows DNS names not IPs. I set up a standard http vip. Problem is after the user hits the F5 you are SNAT'ed and the LDAP server sends you to a Login screen not the web page which is not acceptable to the user.
The HTTP redirect was set up so the user is redirected directly to the LDAP server instead of going through the F5. This way the DNS name is what the webserver expects. I am not sure fallback will help but I can try.
Thanks for your input.
