SNAT as internal VLAN

Hi Guys,

 

 

I've got a scenario where we have to use load balancers infront of servers which are shared by two separate network segments. Here's our plan:

 

 

- Two interfaces on all servers, one to each network segment behind F5

 

- Configure F5 in a way that it always use same source as internal VLAN so that webservers treat it as a LAN traffic and send it back to corresponding F5 instead of routing it.

 

 

I've attached the daigram as well as it's here: http://i.imgur.com/gJBwHBm.png (white switch type thing is F5 device) - I'm really a newbie in F5 and need some pointers where I can do some more study or research about this.

 

 

thanks a lot !!!
