F5 Load Balancer VIP pointing to 2 groups of SMTP servers

Hi Larry,

 

 

I thought of something else after I hit submit...

 

 

Instead of using iRules, another way to accomplish your goal would be to do priority group activation. Put the members of both groups A and B into a pool, and assign the members that are in group A a higher priority group than those in group B. For more information, go to chapter 4 of the LTM manual: https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/manuals/product/LTM_config_guide_943/ltm_pools.html?sr=18269610

 

 

I hope this is a more elegant solution for you.

 

 

Cheers,

 

Helen
