NimbostratusPrecedence
Hey all!
Quick question: can anyone tell me the precedence/order the F5 uses to evaluate irules/nats/snats? Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks,

CirrostratusI think it's iRule > virtual server > SNAT.
If you have a default SNAT defined and SNAT on the virtual server, the virtual server's configuration will take precedence. You can have a SNAT enabled on a virtual server or configured globally, and then disable it in a rule.
I wouldn't suggest trying to mix NATs and SNATs on the same addresses. A SNAT or one-to-one virtual server should provide more granularity and fewer issues.
