    Thanks for the suggestion, I did that and there has been no change. I did make an error in my post:

     

     

    Client is using 50002, Agent is using 4172

     

     

    This link says that it is correct, and VMware super engineer says that is correct. the change was to not have the agent use 50001 and now use 4172.

     

     

    Here is the scenerio, and we feel it is firewall related.

     

     

    I have an internal f5 using the iApp and internally everyhting is fine.

     

    I have a DMZ f5 using iApp and sending traffic to internal f5. This is probably where the problem is as it is SNAT'ing twice (maybe) I will reconfigure and get it to go direct to Connection server and see where that gets me.

     

     

    I think I need the following things yet missing some:

     

     

     

    VDI_apm_dtls-APM IP Address-4433 - Have a firewall rule external in to DMZ

     

    VDI_apm_http_virtual-APM IP Address-80 (HTTP) - Have a firewall rule external in to DMZ

     

    VDI_apm_https_virtual-APM IP Address-443 (HTTPS) - Have a firewall rule external in in to DMZ

     

    VDI_http_virtual-Virtual View IP Address-80 (HTTP) - No firewall rules

     

    VDI_https_virtual-Virtual View IP Address-443 (HTTPS)

     

    VDI_tcp-10.0.56.0/24-4172 Forwarding (IP)

     

    VDI_udp-10.0.56.0/24-4172 Forwarding (IP)

     

     

    Please help with firewall rules needed open for APM and only connection server. Firewall in to f5 and f5 to internal network rules. This is begging now.

     

     

    thanks ever so much,

    Denis,

     

     

    VDI_apm_dtls-APM IP Address-4433 - Have a firewall rule external in to DMZ (Is this 4433/UDP)

     

    VDI_apm_http_virtual-APM IP Address-80 (HTTP) - Have a firewall rule external in to DMZ

     

    VDI_apm_https_virtual-APM IP Address-443 (HTTPS) - Have a firewall rule external in in to DMZ

     

    VDI_http_virtual-Virtual View IP Address-80 (HTTP) - No firewall rules

     

    VDI_https_virtual-Virtual View IP Address-443 (HTTPS)

     

    VDI_tcp-10.0.56.0/24-4172 Forwarding (IP)

     

    VDI_udp-10.0.56.0/24-4172 Forwarding (IP)

     

     

     

     

    You may also need a FW rule to allow 4172 tcp and udp between the bigip and the desktops.
