Iperf VIP pointing to iperf running on the same F5
I am looking at creating a VIP which forwards traffic to iperf running on the same F5 on some port. I started iperf on the management interface and can run iperf tests fine if I connect directly to it. Then I created a VIP in another vlan with management interface as its pool member, enabled monitor and the pool came up green, but I could not see any traffic to management interface when I tried connecting to that VIP (pointing to mgmt interface as pool member). I tried with no SNAT, as well as SNAT using a SNAT pool in the same subnet as management interface. I wasn't able to use the loopback or the self IP on that VLAN as pool members ("The requested pool member is already in use as a self IP address" and "IP Address 127.0.0.1 is invalid, loopback not allowed.") Having another machine running iperf isn't really an option. So I must either run it on this F5 or not run it at all. Hope someone can help.
