    What is the server type behind f5 ? 

    Maybe this authentication message comes from the backend server which behind f5 and published by "10.0.30.100"

Do you ask what kind of node behind f5? it has two devices. One is router, other is win7.

Using credential of router cannot resolve the issue. but

After I disabled the router, that Authentication required box disapper. 

You are right. the issue resolved. Thank you!

I got below page. that is because this is win7 without page setting. but still feel weired one router as node cause such strange behavire

    Hi davidy2001 , 
    Great news bro , I expected that behavior because of a device behind your F5 device. 

    > I want to say that accessing a routed behind F5 isn’t doable , Router is used to transfer traffic and only you can test " ping icmp " on it through F5. 

    > But if you published web server behind F5 you can access it with using F5 virtual server , and publishing web servers is the most widely deployed with F5 , But F5 does say no to any device behind it and can deal with any type of technologies.
