Snat Pool

Hello, Trying to understand a current LTM setup. We have 2 virtual server setup on our internal LTM. vs_172-24-5-54 and vs_172-24-5-61. Both of virtual servers have been assigned the same SNAT Pool and the SNAT pool list is one of the virtual server ip address say 172.24.5.54.

 

Please help me understand how is this traffic working?

 

Thanks.

    I'm not sure if I understand your question correctly, because this is basic LTM functionality. Connections setup from the server context of the BIG-IP will use the SNAT Pool address set on the virtual server. So in this example, connections originating from the BIG-IP will translate the client source address to 172.24.5.54 when connecting to the pool members.
