CirrostratusUsing LTM for network forwarding
Our data center architecture has a pretty standard model, with an "internal" network and a "DMZ". Our internal network does not have a direct route to the Internet. However, I have LTMs in our DMZ th...

CirrostratusSo you can't define a static route directly from your Microsoft server. You have to define a route on your internal router.
I can suggest you to make a Policy Based Routing (PBR) it will avoid you to change a lot of thing on your configuration.
For sure your problem isn't part of your F5 configuration.
smp_86112Sorry, but I don't understand what PBR means or what the implications are. What I really need to understand is whether or not the F5 can facilitate this communication, and if so, how would I do it? It's not really my decision about how much work is too much - I just need to communicate what I would need to do. But I'm still unsure about that. If we configured our internal routing infrastructure to point each of the published Microsoft networks at our F5, could I create IP Forwarding Virtual Servers for each of those networks and enable SNAT? I realize the complexity and the amount of Virtual Servers that would need, but technically speaking would that work?
