This does not make sense - but could be an IPSO3.6 issue.
On IPSO3.5 and prior it works as follows.
Packets originating from the firewall should use:
source IP = Firewall physical IP
source MAC = Firewall physical MAC addresses (not the virtual).
Packets forwarded through the firewall should use:
source IP = Original Source IP
source MAC = Firewall physical MAC addresses (not the virtual).
Packet destined to the firewall should use:
destination IP = Firewall physical IP
destination MAC = Firewall physical MAC addresses (not the virtual).
Packets destined to device through firewall should use:
destination IP = Ultimate Destination IP
destination MAC = Firewall VRRP MAC address.
The firewall should not source connections using the Virtual IP address. However, by
Enabling 'Accept Connections to VRRP IPs' should allow connection to be established
direct to the virtual IP are - hence responses will come from this IP address.
I don't like IPSO3.6: when I tested it, it did not pass IP multicast packets (i.e.
VRRP) to CP. This meant the VRRP converged, but CP had no knowledge of it. This scared
me as what else might be going through un-noticed!!!
