hi Unai, I use cli,
here are the options we have for this which should be enough to get it working: you need a server source-ip line to set the nat ip of the serveriron (to force traffic back to the server iron): server source-ip 10.1.1.100 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 (x.x.x.x is an ip in the net of the LB) Real Server config looks like this: server remote-name server1-locationA 10.1.1.1 port default disable source-nat port http port http keepalive server remote-name server1-locationB 10.2.2.1 port default disable source-nat port http port http keepalive server virtual vip 10.1.1.1 predictor least-conn port default disable port http Make sure you have DSR turned off on the vip.
