Regarding client IP address

It's weird!!! I am not able to see connection details regarding my ip address, when I access an application that is load-balanced using F5 (LTM). I use the command show sys connection | grep x.x.x.x. Connection details of other users, even those who are from the same LAN as that of me is visible.

 

application delivery
BIG-IP
devops
LTM

    Greetings,

    I'm not clear on what "show sys connection" is filtering by default, but believe I've experienced this as well and resolved it by adding some filters such as; "type any", "protocol tcp", "cs-client-addr", etc. Try a tab complete on your device to see the full list of filters: 
     show sys connection
Properties:
  age                cs-client-addr     cs-server-addr     max-result-limit   ss-client-addr     ss-server-addr     type
  connection-id      cs-client-port     cs-server-port     protocol           ss-client-port     ss-server-port     {

    Hope this helps!
