Hi JamesCrk ,
Have you added the correct routes on bigip ip , for instance ( Static routes ).
Creating forward virtual server will help to make bigip process traffic that destinated to the Forwarder Virtual server ip , but you need to adjust the routes of bigip itself.
another thing :
take a packet capture in both directions ( Client/server ) to see if bigip send/receive traffic on both sides or not.
JamesCrkHi, the routing works fine, its only when the tcp gets out of state for some reason the F5 starts rejecting it, we just want to allow that through regardless of state
Hi JamesCrk ,
I believe you can retrieve your dropped connections by deleting it's entry from Connection table , no need to create the forwarder VS again.
use this article to delete it : https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K53851362If your connections are continous and not reach to idle timeout and there is a glitch in your network , sure this is may cause an impact for these connections and deleting them from connection table will solve it.
I faced an issue like this before similar to your scenario
