    The rule is pretty simple: when CLIENT_ACCEPTED { snatpool WM-SNAT member 192.168.2.22 } It continues to function as if I hadn't specified a member. I'm suspecting it may just be a bug. If I specify an IP address with "snat [IP]", it seems that IP must already be configured in a SNAT pool, or else the F5 won't respond to ARPs. So that issue is explainable. Thanks Norman
