An LTM Specialist configured a virtual server to load balance a custom application. The application works when it is tested from within the firewall but it fails when tested externally. The pool member address is 192.168.200.10:80. A capture from an external client shows:
GET /index.jsp HTTP/1.1

Adding a web acceleration profile won't help here, just saying.

Wait, why is it redirecting to a private IP? That seems off.

I think a redirect rewrite might be the answer too.

Totally agree, that should fix the routing issue.

Looks like a SNAT pool is needed for external access.

I'm uncertain about the content filter option; it doesn't seem relevant to the external access problem we're seeing here.

I feel like the 302 response indicates a redirect issue, so configuring the redirect rewrite option might be the solution.

This question seems familiar; I think we practiced something similar where the redirect was causing issues. Maybe the HTTP profile needs adjustment?

I remember something about SNAT pools being necessary for external access, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the right approach here.

Hmm, this seems like it could be a SNAT issue. If the virtual server isn't translating the source IP correctly, that could explain the redirect. I'll focus on that as a potential solution.

Alright, let's think this through step-by-step. The key seems to be that the external client is getting redirected, so we need to figure out why that's happening.

Okay, let's see here. The application works internally but not externally, and the response shows a 302 redirect. I think I have an idea of what might be going on.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully analyze the information provided to determine the best solution.

I'm a bit confused by the 302 redirect. Is there an issue with the virtual server configuration or the backend web server? I'll need to review the details carefully.

Okay, let's see here. The log shows a stuck thread, so that's likely related to one of the answer choices. I'll need to think through the implications of that.

Okay, let's see. The company is in a niche industry, so they'll need to pay competitively to attract the right talent. But they also have a decent cash balance and are looking to be profitable soon. I think the best approach would be to pay at the market rate to balance attracting talent and managing costs.

This seems like a tricky question. I'll need to carefully consider the potential liable parties based on the audit team's breach of duty.

Configuring a content filter on the backend web server? That's like trying to fix a flat tire by changing the oil - it's not going to help with this problem.

Configuring the redirect rewrite option in the HTTP profile could be a solution, but it might be overkill for this case. The 302 Found response suggests a more specific network-level issue.

Adding a Web Acceleration Profile to the virtual server doesn't seem relevant to this issue. The problem is more likely related to network configuration or routing.

I think the solution is to assign a SNAT pool to the virtual server. The 302 Found response indicates that the client's request is being redirected to the internal IP address, which the external client can't access.
