    You can achieve this by using priority group.

    Local Traffic  ››  Pools : Pool List  ››  pool_name

Hi Mate,

 

You can configure priority in the pools for the specefic nodes which will ineffect and Active/Stand by state.

 

Navigate to Local Traffic ›› Pools ›› Pool List and click on the specefic pool name. Go to members and click on each member name.

 

in the configuration section configure the Priority group 10 for active and continue with another node with priority 5 for passive.

 

Now you can see all the traffic is sending to node 1 and once node 1 goes down traffic will send to node 2.

 

Hope this helps.
