D can not work The purpose of SNAT is to change the source IP address of outgoing packets, so they appear to come from a different address. This is commonly used in scenarios where multiple devices on a private network share a single public IP address for outgoing traffic. By changing the source IP address, it allows the return traffic to be directed back to the F5 device, which can then appropriately route it to the intended internal destination. If you configure the SNAT pool or address to be identical to the virtual server's IP address, it may lead to routing and network-related issues because it would effectively result in no translation of the source IP address. This can potentially cause problems in the return traffic handling and prevent proper load balancing or traffic management. So, it's essential to ensure that the SNAT pool or address is distinct from the IP address of the associated virtual server to achieve the intended source IP address translation and correct functioning of your F5 configuration.
