We're just setting up 2x Big-IP 4000s as a HA pair but would like them to be used Active-Active with Traffic Groups.
We have a new vlan (/23 network subnet) which will contain the Virtual Serve...

AltostratusThe answer is yes.
I left this as a comment because... One, I would like to know what is driving an ACTIVE/ACTIVE deployment. I find they are best avoided. If you are building this so that one system can handle the load, I would just deploy ACTIVE/STANDBY. If you are planning on loading the systems past the ability of one, understand the failure scenarios.
Secondly, if you go ACTIVE/ACTIVE I would encourage you to go with two /24s for ease of IP management and possible ease of configuring automated VIP deployment systems in the future.
Best of luck on your deployment!!!
