Load Balancing UDP 514 Syslog traffic
We have a need to load Balance syslog traffic between 2 servers.
Created a Standard VS using Service Port 514 that sends traffic to the Pool of 2 Servers. using a global SNAT so on the VS the Source Address Translation is set to none.
As we expected when the traffic reaches the Pooled Servers the Source Address/Hostname has been overwritten and shows as the SNAT IP of the Load balancer.
Tried getting around this using iRules of slight variations but so far have had no luck
when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
if {[IP::addr [IP::client_addr] equals 172.16.0.0/16]}{
snat none
}
}
any thoughts on how to bypass SNAT and get the proper Source Address to the Syslog Servers?
