Hi CB,
thanks for the reply. I was actually trying to figure out more of the spanning tree config for the F5 and switches here as both networks are redundant (A/B switches in each network). It sounds like your settings work fine in single networks where spanning tree isn't an issue, which I might have to go for but currently I have the F5 connected to the A and B switch in the one network and ideally I need to connect the F5 LTM to the other network exactly the same so there would be 4 network links with the trunked in VLAN's connected to the F5, one going to the A switch of the existing network, one to the B switch of the existing, then additionally one link connected to the A switch of the new network and one to the B switch of the new network.
As per currently I'm using LACP with rapid spanning tree however I'm concerned that trying to do exactly the same for the connections to the new network would mean the spanning tree of the two networks would 'see each other'. Its more of a routing and switching question than F5 LTM I guess.
cheers
