Yes, we have seen similar with the new MSSQL availibility groups. We did just as you suggest, create a forwadingIP UDP VS with preserve strict. Since you are using a 5 second timeout you may benefit more from using stateless virtual servers for this UDP traffic, but you will need on for both directions of the traffic flow.

- benmgood36Dec 09, 2015NimbostratusAfter reading this, I suppose I should have a stateless VS for 0.0.0.0/0 for UDP instead of IP forwarding. I followed the guidelines in https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/7000/500/sol7595.html and set up a forwarding VS for TCP, UDP, and non-TCP/UDP with their own fastL4 profiles.
