NimbostratusCan we use BIG IQ Management IP to establish HA
Hi,
We have two BIG IQ Enterprise manager, one in each DC. Both the DCs have their own exclusive IP subnets.
can we establish HA between these two BIG IQ Enterprise Manager using their Managemen...

NimbostratusBIG IQ and Enterprise manager are different product.
For BIG IQ you can use management address as HA, just make sure the latency between 2 DC should be less than 3 sec which is hard coded in BIG IQ.
Allwin_179373Hi Amit,
Thanks for the reply.
Could you please clarify on the 3 Sec part because in all the BIG IQ Admin guides I'm only able to find that the HA can be formed using Self IPs only.
Don't get me wrong as I'm new to this BIG IQ. :)

Hi Amit,
I had checked admin guide 4.5.0. (https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-iq-device/manuals/product/bigiq-device-management-4-5-0/9.html)
It doesn't have any mention of utilizing management IP for HA.
Apologies for my simple questions, its just that i have to be sure before implementing it.
