Looking for some help on setting up LTM/GTM VE iQuery

We're in the process of trying to correct the setup of our GTM's, and have setup 2 GTM's, and 2 LTM's for testing DC failover. I'm unable to get iQuery to work between the devices. I read that it was due to the Linux under the hood, but I'm not certain. Has anyone gotten this working? Is there something I'm missing? Devices are on the same subnet, I can SSH from one to the other, and vice versa, so the connection is there, I just can't get iQuery to work. It comes back with This error: ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host ERROR: Can't read remote cert via /usr/bin/ssh. I have tried the root account and that didn't seem to work either. Any help is appreciated!

 

Thanks, John

    Are you sure you can ssh between them, to the same IP address ? The error message coming back indicates that bigip_add attempted to ssh to the other box, and the TCP connection was closed by the other side (which would happen if you're blocking ssh with the ssh allow list)
