Overview: Configuring a virtual server for multi-source or
multi-destination traffic
When you configure the BIG-IP system, you typically create a separate virtual
server for each unique source or destination IP address/port combination specified
within the header of ingress packets. You also assign a unique set of profiles and
policies that you want the virtual server to apply to the matching traffic.
In some cases, however, disparate traffic flows destined for various IP
addresses and ports all need the same set of profiles and policies applied to them. Rather
than creating many separate virtual servers to accomplish this, you can create a single
virtual server that specifies multiple source or destination IP address/port
combinations, while applying the same set of profiles and policies to all of the
traffic.
