Hi,
So does VMnet4 have a gateway set?
can your lamp server, see (ping) the gateway?
can your big-ip, see (ping) the gateway?From one thing, its been a couple of years since i used workstation, but not sure what "custom" does.
I would have said you wanted a Host-only network, or least test it with that first.
My first guess is that this is a workstation / network interface issue.
So also check your mac addresses under Network > Interfaces and make sure they align to your workstation config of the interfaces you have assigned.- rkram_pAltostratus
Hi,
i have just follwed the stpes in that partner guide.
i have tried host only option too but same error.
Vmnet4 doesn't configure any gateway. even i couldnt ping f5 self IP from the lamp server.
do you succest me to check my PC interfaces?? is it something related to Network interface issue?
Thanks,
RK
Hi,
Did you configure the interfaces in the Lamp? a simple test is make a ping from the lamp to the selfip configured in the same network in the bigip, if this doesn´t work probably your issue in the lamp network interface configuration, additional review that the F5 are in the same vnet than the lamp.
Have you got 2 lamp servers on that network as per the diagram?
Can those 2 LAMP servers see each other?

Hi Sebastian,
i couldnt ping self ip from the LAMP server.
i have configured interfaces in the lamp server but still getting failed.

Hi,
Could you try to assign in the interface of the LAMP and F5 a generic network as in the next example:
For Lamp:
For the F5 in my case the network connected to Lamp is Adapter 3:
Hope it´s works.

Hi Sebastian,
