IP Forwarding or Multiple VLANs

It sounds like you want something called VIP bounceback.

 

 

I can only think of 3 ways to do this.

 

 

Way 1: Autosnat all requests from the VIP.

 

 

Way 2 : Use an IRULE and datagroups

 

 

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
if { [matchclass [IP::remote_addr] equals $::dg_internal]} {
  snat automap
 }
}

 

 

What 3 use irule and switch command.

 

 

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
  switch [IP::remote_addr] {
    "IP ADDRESS/MASK" { snat automap }
    "2nd IP ADDRESS/MASK" { snat automap }
  }
}

 

 

Way 1 will work but it snats EVERYTHING coming into the Virtual server

 

Way 2 will work and selectively snats based on the Clients IP address. The irule is reusable

 

Way 3 might be more efficient because it doesn't use a datagroup object, but the code cannot be reused because the "IP Address/MASK" is specifically in the IRULE statements

 

 

My personal preference is WAY 2, but you can use any of these.

 

 

I hope this helps.
