ip forwarding

Hello There,

 

if some client using VIP x.x.x.x for accessing any application hosted on real server y.y.y.y so can we use same VIP x.x.x.x as SNAT when configure wild card ip forwarding so that real server y.y.y.y can access internet.

 

Regard Manoj

  • I want to be more specific on this to clear the question. x.x.x.x is a standard VIP which is acting as a destination when client is accessing an application hosted on y.y.y.y.

     

    so now I want use the same VIP x.x.x.x as a SNAT when y.y.y.y wants to access internet using wild card ip forwarding.

     

    I now Auto map can be use but can we use VIP x.x.x.x as SNAT list or pool and then maps to Vserver for IP forwarder.

     

    Regards Manoj

     

  • Yes, you could do that with a SNAT pool that includes that IP address which is attached to your forwardingIP VIP.
