Hello Mahi.

Configure 3 VS is faster than configure a policy.

ltm policy Policy_Test {

    rules {
        redirect {
            actions {
                0 {
                    forward
                    select
                    pool P-WEB_80
                    snat automap
                }
            }
            conditions {
                0 {
                    tcp
                    port
                    local
                    values { 80 }
                }
            }
        }
    }
