F5 LTM creating VLANs etc

I have a VLAN SVI (VLAN5) on our cores. I created another VLAN (VLAN6) in the database which will be the virtual servers for VLAN5.   So basically users can hit the IP from VLAN6 which then will ...

Thank you for the reply ok so I removed all VLAN5 stuff from the F5 LTM, here is how it looks:

 

 

VLAN250 --> Interface 1.1 (Connected to an Access Port) --> Self IP 10.1.250.241 (Floating) & 10.1.250.242 (Non Floating)

 

 

So looks like from what you said I need to convert that access port into a trunk port?

 

Then simply create nodes from VLAN5 and then Virtual from VLAN6?

 

 

Also since VLAN250 is under Common partition when I setup the nodes under Common partition health monitor works but if I put them under Private health monitor does not work. I'm assuming that I need to put the nodes in the same partition as VLAN250 that is connected to the switch?

 

 

Will I need to change the default gateway on the servers that are in VLAN5 or it stays the same?

 

 

VLAN 6 do I route it via 10.1.250.241 (which is the floating IP)
