      v2.0.3 Release:

      Does anyone know how I can get a WAN VIP Address to respond to ping,
      without using 1:1 NAT to expose everything to a device?

        1:1 NAT doesn't expose everything, only what your firewall rules permit. With CARP or IP alias VIPs you can let the firewall respond to pings on them.

          PERFECT !

          Works great.
          ::) I just assumed that 1:1 opened everything…  ::)

          Thank You so much...
