I'm just glad I don't have to remember all these VLAN and IP address details. As long as A works, I'm happy.

Haha, alternating IPs to avoid port exhaustion? That's like using a band-aid to fix a broken leg. A is the way to go.

Alternating between floating and non-floating self-IPs? That sounds like a recipe for port exhaustion. I'll stick with A.

I thought it would be the floating self-IP on the VLAN where the packet arrives. Guess I need to brush up on my SNAT automap knowledge.

I've seen questions like this before. I think the answer has to do with the VLAN where the packet is leaving the system, but I'll double-check my notes to be sure.

Ugh, I'm not sure about this one. SNAT can be confusing, and I'm not totally clear on how the floating/non-floating self-IP addresses come into play.
