Mar 31, 2010port address translation, can it be done with out an Irule ?
is there a way to perform port address translation with out using the Irules???
I have a VIP: 443 and a pool with DIP:444 assigned to the VIP, will the F5 automatically transalte the port or do I need to write an IRule for that ?

It'll do the port translation by default - no rule needed.

Its a flag on the Virtual Server, usually found near the bottom of the Virtual Server config form on the web console - below address translation - so you can turn either off if you like. - _33_113201

I have the port translation flag marked as enabled, but still I am not being able to test it .
on the iis server I can do https://localhost:444/test.htm
but when I test OTA like https://VIP/test.htm I do not go any ahead. - _33_113201

Sounds like your problem may not be port translation, have you checked the request is hitting iis?
You may need a SNAT to ensure the response is routed correctly.
If there is a log entry on iis for the request https://VIP/test.htm post it here.
If there is not, I'd run tcpdump on the LTM and check the source address of the packets being forwarded to iis - depending on the return route you need you may need a SNAT.
A little more network info regarding the interfaces and desired route could help. - Luis_Valle_5601

I have a similar problem, but the URL don´t has the :444 then the response of the server is a 404...
my inside is https://server.com/reportes an the virual have to be https://server.com:444/reportes
I dont like a redirect, the user never have to see the port
some bady can help me - hoolio

Hi Luis,
If you want to insert :444 in the Host header if it's not present, you can use an iRule like this:when HTTP_REQUEST { Check if host header has a value and doesn't already have :444 if {[HTTP::host] ne "" && [getfield [HTTP::host] ":" 2] ne "444"}{ Append :444 to the host header value HTTP::header replace Host "[HTTP::host]:444" } }
