F5 HA Question

1. Failover is the cable... But state sync is always network because the cable is voltage level only. You can define pretty much an IP on the F5 to be the state sync IP's. (Bot the management ports though).

 

 

2. A non-floating selfip lives on the unit you define it on only. It's never on the other unit. When defining an IP as floating you can have it active on unit 1 or unit 2. Unit 2 is really only used (Or different from unit 1) when you're running active-active. Just use unit 1 if in doubt.
