The idea behind a forwarding virtual server is that the destination address isn't translated and isn't sent to a pool. The request just goes out according to the routing table to the original destination IP address. If you want/need to translate the source IP you can enable SNAT on the forwarding virtual server.

 

 

I haven't worked much with VLAN groups, so I'm not sure whether the forwarding virtual server can be enabled only on the internal VLAN if you have it defined in a VLAN group.

 

 

Maybe someone else with more experience with VLAN groups can suggest a solution?
