Thanks JRahm, Help me understand a little clearer please. Since I have chose Automap is this how my traffic is flowing?: Example: External IP from client request:11.11.11.11 VIP:10.1.10.5 Node 192.168.50.50
External IP from client is nated to the vip, the F5 translates the destination address of 10.1.10.5 to that of the node of 192.168.50.50 On the way back out the F5 translates the source ip address of 192.168.50.50 to that of the vip at 10.1.10.5.
or
I'm still not sure if the self ip is being used in my scenario or at all and if it is how? What also confuses me is that the options I have are one of two, either snat or automap, not Snat Automat as if it's one.
