Creating 2nd VS with destination 0.0.0.0/0 (for default gateway config)?

Hi,

 

How do I add multiple VSs with destination 0.0.0.0/0?

 

I already have one /Partition_A/0.0.0.0 defined, source IP range restricted to net_A and it's only enabled on VLAN_A. Pool/node is set to router's IP address.

 

Now I'm trying to add two more VSs for two other projects and get error saying that 0.0.0.0 already exists.

 

These two new projects are using /Partition_B/ with two new networks / VLANs. I expected I could create two VSs in /Partition_B/ for both network and VLANs - each VS needs to use different router's IP ( already have pools defined).

    If the first VS using 0.0.0.0 was created in a custom partition then the virtual address 0.0.0.0 also was created in that partition. VS in other partitions cannot then use that address.

     

    If the virtual address is in partition Common then any VS in any partition can use it.

    You will either need to be using VIPs which can specify source and destination on the VIP, 11.5+, or you will need to use route domains to reuse that VIP definition. This is one of the reasons route domains exist.

    Thank you for your help! I'll go with re-creating 0.0.0.0 VA under /Common and re-using it in multiple VSs...
