    Hi,

    No problem, always is a pleasure to help, The feature that allows this configuration is Autolasthop, the flow is:

    212.141.49.18 to VS 192.168.18.46 -- VS 192.168.18.46 to pool 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3 -- pool 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3 to new vs  192.168.18.47 ----- new vs  192.168.18.47 to pool 192.168.18.36 and 192.168.18.37.

     

    Hope it´s works.

Hi,

You need to configure a second layer of balancing, how? the server 192.168.1.2-3 must point to a new virtual server that has a pool with the IP 192.168.18.36 and 192.168.18.37.

    Hi Sebastian, very interesting, thanks.

    So, the flow goes from 212.141.49.18 to VS 192.168.18.46, VS balances towards servers 192.168.1.2-3 and servers 192.168.1.2-3 must respond to ANOTHER VS with nodes 192.168.18.36 and 192.168.18.37, right? Should this new VS have also a new IP (so, NOT 192.168.18.46)? And how can two server nodes respond to the new server, with a SNAT? In this manner does the flow return to the original source 212.141.49.18?
    Sorry for a lot of question, but a very difficult issue for me.
