Starting with the last question, yes F5 can do policy-based routing. Basic rulesets can be defined with
Local Traffic Policy
feature. For complex scenarios, you have iRules
which are not that complex to write. Both are available in LTM.
In regards to deployment scenario, you can definitely achieve this. Since you mentioned ASM, just take note that you will have to decrypt SSL/TLS at the firewall or BigIP, otherwise ASM cannot inspect L7 contents.
@ Diagram I'm not sure if everyone will be able to read it the same. Does the Web Server depend on that Database Server service? Or is the Database a standalone service, not related to Web Server underneath Core 1 switch? This one is also unrelated to your questions, but why aren't Core 1 and Core 2 configured as stack of 2 units?.. Or are they?
Thank you for your answer yes web server depend on that database server service , also core 1 and core 2 configured as 2 unit not stack , so do you recommend to configured them as stack , and is this change our design ?
