This irule will help you to check traffic hitting to virtual server and source IP address.

You can log locally for testing and debugging purposes, but you should use High Speed Logging to a syslog server if you are want to keep collecting logs.
The BigIP is not optimized for the significant I/O generated by high levels of local logging.
SmithyUse this to create a HSL configuration: https://github.com/brett-at-f5/tmsh/blob/master/create_hsl_log_publisher.tmsh
Use this to log the full proxy connection (Client --> VS : SNAT --> Pool Member) via HSL: https://github.com/brett-at-f5/irules/blob/master/logging/log_ip_nat_hsl_irule.tcl
You can modify the above for Syslog format.
