When you disable address translation the BIG-IP won't translate the virtual server IP address into the pool member address. Disabling this can be use-full if the virtual server and pool member have the same IP address.
Disabling port translation does the same as address translation but then for the virtual server listing port. It is used/use-full when your load balancing to a pool with members listening on the any port.
