Thanks to both of you for the quick reply. So is it my understanding that I can't enforce timeouts using Auto SNAT? Is there really no way to configure this setting? The lvs I replaced was configured for direct return, so in order to install the F5 in a transparent fashion, we deployed it in a 'router on a stick' fashion. If I switch the VS to use fasthttp profile, I have a solution to my problem, but the business wants to maintain original IPs so I need to inject XFF headers into the requests. All my traffic is HTTPS, so fasthttp is not an option at this time. I am including the config of the VS, but it sounds like I know my answer. Just don't know if there is an easy solution to my problem. Thanks.
