how does the nodes behind the BIGIP know to respond to the VIP dns name, maximo.company.com ? Does the nodes need to be configured to respond to the VIP dns name ? You know when a request comes into the BIGIP from a client, the BIGIP source NATs the clients IP and the server does not know the iP of the original client. The nodes only sees the BIGIPs selfIP. The Nodes do not communicate directly with the client.
