NimbostratusSNAT Pass the source IP to the sever
Hello:
I have a Virtual Server, of SMTP protocol.
The problem is that in the log mail servers i see that all the connections are from the VS, and i cannot see the IP of the client. ...
SNAT replaces the client sourceIP.
X-Forwarded-For is an HTTP header than can be inserted in an HTTP request, but doesn't apply to SMTP traffic.
The best solution is to set the LTM floating self-IP on the mailserver-facing VLAN as the default gateway for the mailservers and disable the SNAT for the SMTP virtual server.
