SNAT - NO SNAT

Hi, i'm using big-ip 4000 as forward proxy and reverse proxy. In reverse proxy sample, it's should be possible use source client ip address as forward back-end server ?   Regards, j.

a small picture might help.

 

in general when the big-ip is setup inline, so "between" the client and server you don't need SNAT if the server has the big-ip as default gateway.
