SNAT=None client source IP is self IP

I am trying to setup non-HTTP vServer. End server needs to see client source IP. After disabling SNAT ( SNAT=NONE), I am getting source IP as Self IP. End server GW is pointing to Self-IP. Why sour...

Where do you see a self ip as a source? If SNAT is not set the only traffic sourcing from self ip should be monitors testing availability of the nodes (backend servers).

Ok. In this case I would use tcpdump to sniff through the traffic and see what is going on. Regarding the configuration you posted. It looks somewhat strange as I would expect snatpool definition within source-address-translation.

 

What version are you running?
