Hi,

 

Of course changing switch doesn't require a reboot of F5.

 

  1. Unplug standby unit from sw A and plug it to sw B
  2. Check if all pool members are available on th the standby unit
  3. Force à failover from active to standby
  4. Unplug new standby unit from sw A and plug it to sw B
  5. Check if all pool members are available on th the new standby unit
