Partition Route domain and VLAN no available
Hello to all,
This is my first post/question and I hope I'll live up to the expectations of the F5 community!
I administer an already installed F5 LTM appliance pair in high availability with a single traffic group. I'm trying to create a new partition that ideally would have its own dedicated route domain, since it belongs to a different network segment and I'd would not like to bridge and/or bypass the firewall installed between the F5 and the servers. So, I created a new partition name "vlan.21_partition", assigned appropriate vlans and then tried to create a route domain.
Is it necessary for a route domain to have more than one vlans? What I'm trying to achieve is a one-arm configuration but as isolated as possible in terms of routing. To achieve this, should all objects belong to the partition itself? Could e.g. a node exist in Common and the virtual server in vlan.21_partition?
Since also the LTM appliance performs NAT for internet publishing, in an effort to keep the public IPs that are already bound to the services, can I create a VS in Common partition and the node used for it to be a VS of the vlan.21_partition?
Among my efforts, I managed to create the Route Domain but on Available VLANs I could not get the newly created one I wanted to use, the list is empty. Is there any specific requirement for it to get show in it?
Thanks in advance!
