Help with adding Syslog collectors

Hello I have a question based on syslog traffic, we currently have a VIP in Stateless mode that is forwarding syslog traffic from our infrastructure devices (servers, switches, routers etc) to syslog...

I did not understand what is the end goal.

 

If just add 2 new servers and do round robin, yes, just add the 2 new servers to the pool.

 

If you want to duplicate packets, you can use the clone pool option in the virtual server setup. However, that will only clone once, not 3 times.

 

If you need 3 times, I guess you need iRules to do that.

If I used the stateless virtual server type would this accomplish the same thing? From what I have been reading it is used to forward traffic to syslog collectors.
