An application is configured on an LTM device:
Virtual server: 10.0.0.1:80 (VLAN vlan301)
SNAT IP: 10.0.0.1

An LTM Specialist is tasked with ensuring that the syslogs for the LTM device are sent to a remote syslog server.
The following is an extract from the config file detailing the node and monitor that the LTM device is using for the
remote syslog server:
monitor
Syslog_15002 {
defaults from udp
dest *:15002
}
node 91.223.45.231 {
monitor Syslog_15002
screen RemoteSYSLOG
}
There seem to be problems communicating with the remote syslog server. However, the pool monitor shows that the remote server is up.
The network department has confirmed that there are no firewall rules or networking issues preventing the LTM device from
communicating with the syslog server. The department responsible for the remote syslog server indicates that there may
be problems with the syslog server. The LTM Specialist checks the BIG-IP LTM logs for errors relating to the remote syslog
server. None are found. The LTM Specialist does a tcpdump:
tcpdump -nn port 15002, with the following results:
21:28:36.395543 IP 192.168.100.100.44772 > 91.223.45.231.15002: UDP, length 19

An LTM Specialist has configured a virtual server to distribute connections to a pool of application servers and to offload SSL processing. The application fails to work as expected when connecting to the virtual server. It does work when clients connect directly to the application. Two packet captures were taken at the application server.
What is the root cause of the problem?

An LTM device has a virtual server configured as a Performance Layer 4 virtual listening on 0.0.0.0:0 to perform routing of packets to an upstream router. The client machine at IP address 192.168.0.4 is attempting to contact a host upstream of the LTM device on IP address 10.0.0.99.
The network flow is asymmetrical, and the following TCP capture displays:
# tcpdump -nnni 0.0 'host 192.168.0.4 and host 10.0.0.99'
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on 0.0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes
