    Hi. Good to hear that you resolved your problems.

     

    Yes, you can't just configure an BIG-IP with IP address from a valid amazon subnet and start using it. Any IP address you use should be configured on amazon side via Manage Private IP Addresses. What about BIG-IP floating self-ips or failover? It works for me and afaik it's officially supported.
