Hi James,

 

 

The proxypass iRules are more geared for proxying HTTP requests to alias an external URL to an internal URL. From what you've described, I think you just need to define the static source IP as a SNAT pool address and then add the SNAT pool to the VIP. This would ensure that all packets going from LTM to the VIP's pool members would be sourced from the static IP you specify.

 

 

Try reviewing the online help on the SNAT page, or search for the SNAT section in the LTM config guide for your version on AskF5.com.
