CirrostratusI don't think there is a way to "persist" the client so the same IP in a SNAT pool is used over multiple TCP connections. Most apps do not check the client IP address though so this shouldn't be an issue. If the app uses NTLM authentication or the web app itself enforces the client IP address does not change over the course of a session, this would be a problem. In that case you might want to use an iRule to select the SNAT IP based on the client IP. If you need to do this, reply here and we can come up with some suggestions.
