Monitor SNATs
Hi, Anyone know of a way to monitor SNATs? Is there a session table that the F5 keeps or something similar?

What is is exactly that you're wanting to monitor? tcpdump isn't really what I'd call a monitoring tool in the same way as viewing a table... More of a diagnostics tool to see traffic as it flows
From tmsh there's tmsh's 'show ltm snat' and 'show ltm snatpool', which will give you stats from the snag and snatpool...
be aware also that tcpdump compromises the speed & performance of your unit, and is limited to 200pps max (It has to get all that data form the switch into the host and then perform the filtering.. That takes CPU and memory bandwidth).
