Brilliant answer! @gbamm! After turning these two variables off, my forwarding virtual server working like a charm. However i got 2 questions: 1. what are the 2 variable controlling? ( translate-address & translate-port ) I created the layer2 forwarding by using most of the default settings. The VE is also a brand-new instance, so if these 2 options needs to be off, I haven't seen any docs or kbs mentioned that... (I may miss some important docs...) 2. I am not sure whether these 2 variables can be adjusted in GUI? I did that in tmsh but want to make sure which field in GUI they're mapping to... Thanks again for saving my next few hours...
