Think you want to use clone pools 🙂 Take a look at the following:

Using clone pools and attaching to the primary VS will allow you to send the same traffic to more than one location. Even if you have clone pools with a single pool member, you can attach multiple to the same VS.

Hello whisperer,

"you can attach multiple to the same VS." => How?

  • An unlimited number of clone pools can be configured on the BIG-IP system

=> unlimited on the BIG-IP, not on the VS ! possible in client-side and server-side !

+ Interface mirroring is not supported on my platform:

  • BIG-IP 2000s
  • BIG-IP 2200s
  • BIG-IP 4000s
  • BIG-IP 4200v
