Active/Standby configuration
Hello,
I have a question about active/standby configuration.
Actually, we have two clusters of F5 configured in active/standby configuration. We had a network failure on the HA vlan during few seconds.
Two members of each clusters are passed in active mode.
When HA goes back up, which parameter(Self IPs, MAC,...) is used to decide which members become active ?
In the first cluster, actif member is the same after network failure. In the second clustrer, I see a failover.

Thanks in advance for your response.

One way is to use Auto-Failback and Failover order, as part of the traffic group configuration. Do you have this setup?

No, today i have not this setup. It's an idea for the future.
But, I would like to understand why i got this failover yesterday only in one cluster.
