Creating a VS, does the destination ip have to be a self ip
Hi
So I have a public range - lets say 192.168.10.0/24
I am use 172.16.10.0/24 as the network between my firewall and my F5.
so traffic from the internet destined for 192.168.10.250 goes to the firewall - its public interface is 192.168.10.0/24. it has a static route to 172.16.10.250.
so my 2 F5's (f5-1 & f5-2) have
f5-1
vlan 10
172.16.10.10/24
f5-2
vlan 10
172.16.10.11/24
they share a FIP
172.16.10.250
they both have a vs configured for destination address 192.168.10.250.
and this works, but I have 2 issue/questions
1) does the destination address need to be a self ip address - and if so why is it working !
2) I can't fail it over - works when i reboot the F5, but when i try to put into standby mode :( nothing
