Configuring IPSec with HA configuration

I have a pair of F5 LTMs (HA) whihc I need to configure an IPSec tunnel to a 3rd party device. Is it possible to create the tunnel endpoint using the Floating SelfIP to provide a level of redundancy...

Hi there,

 

Yes it is. Presumably your devices are in an active/standby pair?

 

Thanks

 

Peter

That's correct. With our setup we had the two devices configured with 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.2 with 192.168.0.3 being the floating IP address. For the traffic selector you obviously just need to ensure that your source address matches the floating IP address.
