Automatically disable Virtual Server and Virtual address when creating a Virtual Server
Hello everyone
I need to know if it's possible to create a VS and VA have them automatically completly disable and not answering to ARP request
I know that when you create a VS , you can disable it . But if I am not mistaking a Virtual address is created at the same time and it will answer to ARP request. I can go and disble ARP on the Virtual Address.
But between the time that I click to create the VS and VA and the time that I disable ARP on the VA, will it answer ARP request Let`s say it takes me 30 seconds to 1 minutes to diable ARP , what will happen.
I need to know this , because I may create VS with addresses that are already in use on another load balancer, and I don't want the new VS and VA on the new device answering until when we need to switch
Thanks in advance for your answers

you can create virtual address (with arp disabled) first and then virtual server, can't you?

Hi guys I've done some tests. I am not sure what the behavior is. I tought I had to disable ARP on the VA , bu I guess not. It seems just disabling the VS is enough, I don't see the IP and MAC is ARP table on my PC. Any comments anyone?
