Hi,
making this topic alive again..
Is this actually working for someone? I use very similar rule, just nexthop is defined on L3:
when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
snat automap
node 10.253.1.205
nexthop v814_10.231.65.16_m29 10.231.65.17
}
VIP settings like this:
ltm virtual testVIP {
destination 10.34.26.20%80:any
ip-protocol tcp
mask 255.255.255.255
partition test
profiles {
/Common/tcp-lan-optimized { }
}
rules {
selectNode
}
source 0.0.0.0/0
source-address-translation {
type automap
}
translate-address disabled
translate-port disabled
vs-index 23
}
When client goes to 10.34.26.20 the connection is closed by LB and tcpdump shows a lot of SYN/RST traffic from LB to destination IP (63k packets last time). It looks like some internal loop. Client tested 1 connection using ftp.
"Translate address" on VS level is disabled, otherwise the nexthop command does not work and client gets TCP RST "No route to host"
I use 12.1.3 version.
