SNAT configuration - Inbound /Outbound

Hi jagannathks,

You stated that you have two different portals that you want to access via the same Virtual Server on the Big-IP. Yes, you can do this, but the how depends on the details.

I assume that the ports are running on different servers.

1. Administrator & Customer Care - > 178.18.185.43 Port 8080

2. Web User - > 178.18.185.44 Port 9999

Public IP Address will be a translated to the Virtual Server IP Address (178.18.185.7).

I assume that you will have two different URL's (one for each Portal):

http://administration.website1.com

http://userportal.website2.com

Create two pools.

pool.administration.website1.com (Member: 178.18.185.43 Port 8080)

pool.userportal.website2.com (Member: 178.18.185.44 Port 9999)

Now you just need to route the traffic to the proper pool bases on which portal they need to go to. The Port Translation between the Virtual Server Port (80/443) will occur by default (Port Translation) on the Virtual Server, so it should not be a concern.

Apply iRule:

when HTTP_REQUEST {
switch [string tolower [HTTP::host]] {
"administration.website1.com" { pool pool.administration.website1.com }
"userportal.website2.com" { pool pool.userportal.website2.com }
}
}

If any of my assumptions are incorrect, just provide additional detail and we can help you get it all figured out.

Hope this helps.
