Before you setup an LDAP virtual server/pool know that you cannot authenticate against (read: route to) a virtual server which is "hosted" by the LTM to which the user is attempting to login.

 

Meaning you cannot do this:

 

  • LTM A - setup "ldap.foo.com" virtual server
  • LTM A - point at "ldap.foo.com" for authentication

You would have to setup the virtual server on a different LTM (or LTM cluster).
