Performance Layer 4 and SNAT

Hi,

 

 

You should be able to not enable SNAT on a FastL4 VIP.

 

 

When you say it doesn't work, what do you mean? What do you see in a tcpdump on the interface packets come in on and the interface packets should leave on? To capture a tcpdump when packets are using the PVA, make sure to specify the interface numbers, not the VLAN (SOL6546 Click here).

 

 

Do you want responses to be sent back through the BIG-IP? Do they need to be in order to get the response back to the client? If the traffic can't be handled symmetrically (both request/response go through the same VIP), you should create a custom FastL4 profile with loose initiation and loose close enabled. Take a look at SOL5420 (Click here) for more details on the FastL4 profile settings options.
