NimbostratusVirtual forwarding server versus routing table
Hello there:
I'm pretty new to the F5 system, recently purchased the F5 10259v. Now I am stuck with the routing, especially when I try to do the intra-vlan routing and route all vlans back to my headquarter company through Cisco ASA (VPN). I was told to setup the virtual forwarding servers, I did set them up, but none of them work!!! And I don't know what I shall do with it. In my case, it seems only routing table can help me a bit. For example I am able to route one vlan back to my remote network. When I search this forum for the right answer, I don't see much people mentioned about the routing table when talking about the VS. I get confused. If we have the routing table why bother to use the VS??
Thanks

Felix888_164906The fact shows that setup VS by using any to any may not work.....

Hi The Bhattman:
Just a quick one: I can't let this wide open all the time, what is the best way to apply the security policy? Applying the policy in the virtual servers?

There are a many different ways to do this, but it entirely depends on what you want to block or allow and which direction. In fact you were doing a form of block, when you set Protocol to TCP, because this only allows TCP traffic to forward.
My recommendation is to go to the following link and do the training sessions there.
Here is a link to F5 Global Learning https://f5.learn.com
It's a great way to start your experiences with the F5.
