F5 Big IP HA Setup

Hi,

You can do it manually, you have better flexibility and mastery.

So first I advise you to create a dedicated HA Vlan in order to manage HA between your member.

So First of you have to have the same vlan on both equipement (with the same name).

Example

member1:
internal: SIP: 10.20.10.10 - FIP: 10.20.10.20
external: SIP: 172.20.10.10 - FIP: 172.20.10.20
ha: 192.168.1.10

member2:
internal: SIP: 10.20.10.11
external: SIP: 172.20.10.11
ha: 192.168.1.11

You don't need to create Floating IP on the second member because floating IP will synchronise...

F5 doc: https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/manuals/product/tmos-implementations-12-1-0/4.html

But if you want to use wizard you can also (I can understand that if you do it for the first time it will not easy...): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NLx3FPgMgI

Important Point: - vlan have to have the same name. - set channel communication on both member (Device management -> Device -> click on you device then set Device connectivity: configsync, networkfailover and Mirroring using your HA vlan)

Let me know if you need more help.

Regards.
