Hi,
Until you have fixed a correct tcpdump that I belive will show that the request from the server c will be LB to A or B it will not work. You need to put a snat rule for connection to the vs for traffic from the server c. That because you have a asymetric situation here. when the connection will be loadbalanced to server a or b they will see that the src is from server c and on the same vlan so they will send the traffic directly to the server and bypass the f5. easy way if you have problem with the f5 tcpdump and filtering is to do a tcpdump on server c and look for the server a or b address and you should see syn-ack:s =)

- boneyardAug 23, 2013MVPyeah that point i also made quite early in the question. build a similar situation just now and you get some thing like this if i translate it to your IPs 192.168.1.5 --> 192.168.3.2 client side 192.168.1.5 --> 192.168.1.1 (server A for example) server side then 192.168.1.1 is going to directly contact 192.168.1.5 which fails because 192.168.1.5 isn't expecting that traffic from 192.168.1.1.
