Aug 13, 2012access lost when click force standby
Hi All,
I am new to F5 technology.. so I am not aware if its a common behaviour of F5.
1. I have configured my Load Balancers to work in Active/standby state. but both the devices are always in active state.
Now, When I click force standby on secondary unit of LB, I lose access to device for few seconds. but when it comes up, Its again active.
Please tell me how should I cpme out of this situation.

It wont be possible...
Even if I assign the IP addresses to mgmt IP addresses, I will not be able to get them physically connected. - nitass
