Without disabling SNAT/ Automap,The pool member needs to know the original client address. How can we achieve it? Is there any policy we can apply on the VIP

This vip does not have HTTP profile, can we do something with just tcp profile

Is asked more often, haven't seen anyone post a working solution for years, see for example:

how to insert client IP address in tcp profile for FTP connections | DevCentral

There might be a chance by playing with the TCP::options, but that is pretty difficult and requires you to some how retrieve that information on the server side: Accessing TCP Options from iRules | DevCentral

I would accept it isn't possible.
