Hi!

 

We have recently done this successfully. I advise you to read the following SOL: https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/7000/500/sol7595.html

 

Pay special attention to the section: Emulating stateless IP routing with BIG-IP LTM forwarding virtual servers

 

Also when using a FastL4 profile you need to disable "Hardware SYN Cookie" protection. (Note: Hardware SYN cookie protection may not function as expected on a wildcard virtual server, because hardware SYN cookie protection requires a destination IP/port pair to function properly.)

 

Ps: Before we made the necessary changes we also had some intermittent issues, but not anymore
