F5 Interface giving wrong mac-address to switch
Hello,
I have a F5 1600 LTM which has 2 interfaces UP and 2 interfaces DOWN as depcited in image.
Also when looking at our Firewall which has the gateway for the subnet and has an interface trunking to a switch VLAN in which case that same VLAN is trunked to port 1.1 of our F5 I find the wrong mac address.
The mac address being recorded ends in 2906 but the F5 states that is for 1.3 which is DOWN and I have verified has no physical connection to anything. So I am curious why this is happening. I started to look into this when I was creating documentation on how our QA environment worked....where this F5 sits when trying to map the flow of data revealed the wrong mac address was being used when going out onto the VLAN.
