According to Aarons sample code the log events should show up in /var/log/ltm (log facility local0.).

I´m wondering, if you are trying to apply address translation to the traffic to forward.

At least your virtual server is in PerformanceL4 mode. And probably you have a pool assigned, dont you? Is it a default_gateway_pool?

Did you change the NAT and Port translation settings in your virtual server properties?

Can you provide the output of the following, please:
