In a typical setup you will configure the ARX to ignore .snapshot directories. F5 doesn't know anything about NetApp snapshots nor does it manage any NetApp functionality like snapshots.

The F5 ARX (Acopia) does support managing NetApp Snapshots.
What the customers means from snapshot support is that once a file moves to other storage it also clears the blocks which are being held by previous snapshots for that specific file. Is that what Acopia does?
Appreciate your response.
