Why F5's send TCP RESET packets from a loopback address

Why do F5's send out TCP RESET packets to internet hosts from a local loopback address? :? Is there some known configuration issue or patch that my client may be unaware of which would correct this behavior?

    Hi John-

     

     

    Thank you for your inquiry and for using DevCentral.

     

     

    From what I can tell, this is really more of a BIG-IP technical support question. The DevCentral forum is designed to deal directly with iControl development questions.

     

     

    The best channel for resolving non-iControl issues quickly and comprehensively is F5 Technical Support. You can email them at: support@f5.com.

     

     

    I hope that you will consider iControl for your future projects and we will be glad to help any way we can.

     

     

    Regards,
