    Hello toneman172,

     

    Adding another blade adds additional resources to the cluster , and all the blades within the same chassis are part of a single cluster . Cluster effectively is seen/managed as single BIG-IP.So you don't have the controls to manage a single blade as independent system with its own guest OSs.

To word it differently, I'd like to confirm that you can NOT configure Viprion blades within a chassis with their own independent configuration. My understanding is that each blade within a chassis contains the same configuration as the others.

 

Thanks again!
