While I cannot assign a self ip to the big IP at site A that sits on the same subnet..

 

Is it because there is no subnet match for your default route and self ip?

    Kunjan, I apologize as this may have been a little vague. All of other services that are being load balanced by the big ip at site A have a self ip on the SiteA ip space and fall in the same subnet as the pool members it is load balancing at site A. For the the pool members in site B, since I cannot assign an ip address from site B to the big ip at site A, I am relying on the routable ip address I have configured as my snat pool IP. If I did not understand your question correctly let me know and I will try and explain more clearly. Thanks for your response.
