Loadbalance gateway with persistent profil

Hi David,

 

if I got it right, you want to handle some outgoing traffic through a virtual server.

 

As a resource a pool with a couple of gateways is applied.

 

Probably your virtual server is a wildcard 0.0.0.0/0 in PerformanceL4 mode.

 

To make sure outgoing requests from the same internal client will always go through the same gateway (may be required, if the gateway applies source NAT) a source address affinity profile needs to be selected in the virtual server´s resource settings.

 

This approach may not fit, if the internal requests are forwarded by a proxy. In this case the source IP will always be the same ... external proxy IP. As a result all requests would be send out through the same path.

 

Alternatively you can select a customized destination address affinity to make sure requests to the same destination will go through the same gateway.

 

Thanks, Stephan
