Redirecting traffic using iRules or Root Domains

Hi Simon,

 

An iRule could be used to overwrite the source IP and also next hop, when forwarding the traffic from your DMZ to your internal network.

 

But i would recomment to use different route domains for each security zone (e.g. Internal and dmz). It would simplify your setup to a great extend, make it more robust and less error phrone. In this case you wouldnt need iRule to route the trafic accordingly, since each route domoin would have an independent routing table.

 

Cheers, Kai
