NimbostratusLTM9.4.6:- snat pool with 2 ISP links question
I would like to know how to set up the following:-
backend servers are mail relays / servers who make many DNS lookups, so many that the normal snat automap exhausts all ports.

Hello Bobcox,
You're right you can not change the default UDP timeout for autosnat.
For snat pool members (or individual explicitly defined SNATS), you can lower the tcp/udp/ip idle timeout for each address as follows in your bigip.conf
snatpool my_snat_pool {
members 1.1.1.1
}
snat translation 1.1.1.1 {
tcp timeout 300
udp timeout 300
ip timeout 300
}
You can also do this from the GUI by going to:
a) SNATS -> SNAT Translation List page in 9.4.x and clicking on each defined address OR
b) In 10.x going to SNATS -> SNAT Translations dropdown directly and clicking on each defined address.
HTH
