I got a Foundry ServerIronGT load balancer and I'm trying to setup SLB on it. I have found multiple examples online on how to proceed, but I'm running into a weird issue.
Here's my setup:
Internet Gateway ----> Dell Switch ----> Server 1 (50.50.50.210)
----> Server 2 (50.50.50.211)
----> Server 3 (50.50.50.212)
----> ServerIronGT (50.50.50.220)
I have setup my ServerIron's IP address to fit within my public IP range and I can ping it just fine from anywhere inside or outside my network. I can also ping all individual servers from inside or outside my network as well.
At this point, when I'm connected to the ServerIron's console, I can ping my gateway just fine and I can even ping IPs from outside my network, like Google's DNS server.
The problem I'm having is that my servers connected to the Dell switch can ping my ServerIron just fine, but the ServerIron can't ping any of the servers. So, when I setup my virtual server, it always shows as not healthy because it can't reach my real servers.
Here's my config:

end
Here are my results from the ServerIron:

What am I missing? Thanks.
