Hi hoolio ,

 

 

Thats great.

 

 

Don't suppose you know if we have clustered the 3900's ,with each have access to the same 2 x WAN pipes , can we have the primary acting as 2 nameservers for the same zone.

 

 

Reason being , is if we loose the primary WAN pipe we don't want to switch to a standby facility as we have large enough backhaul to pull our WAN accross from the standby facility to the primary facilities F5.

 

 

So , NS1.company.com - 1.1.1.1 and NS2.company.com - 2.2.2.2 are actually operating of the same F5 ?

 

 

I suppose another stance , is it best to cluster or to use sync groups , but if the LTM part of it is clustered can the GTM be operating in a standalone ?

 

 

many thanks
