Am I correct that node originated traffic (non-load balanced) would require a forwarding server to handle the outbound nat? I believe without this , for example if you assigned a snat pool at the vip level, the LB return traffic from server to client would work fine but server(LTM node) orginated traffic would not be nat'd outbound?
