CirrusF5 to F5 node
I have one f5 with a priority group in which 4 nodes are in priority 20 and a node priority 10 that is in reality another F5 virtual server with 2 nodes behind it. we are using port 80 I see a connection on node 1 on VSF5-B ---node 1 but I don’t get any content.
When we shut down node 1-4 I get a connection
(20) node1----------------------F5-A------------------VS--------------INTERNET SOURCE (20) node2 (20) node3 (20) node4 (10) node 5---------------------VSF5-B---------------node 1 (I get a connection) node 2

Michael_107360Basically VSF5-B is a NODE to F5-A when all the regular servers are down...this is done on port 80- Michael_107360basically i want to load balance the load balancer

I didn't think you could use a virtual server as a pool member;- http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/10000/300/sol10379.html
But it's weird that you see a connection on your server.
Unless I have it wrong and the virtual servers are on different F5s?
- Michael_107360It is not a LOCAL Virtual Server it is a Virtual Server on ANOTHER F5

Do your virtual server configs match up (same configuration options) between LTM A and LTM B? And are the pool members behind LTM B different servers than are being used as pool members in LTM A?
Feel free to post configs here for us to look at.
- Michael_107360yes....ltm-a it totally different than ltm-b
- Cory_50405Can you please post the configs (virtual servers and pools) from both LTM A and LTM B?

"SNAT automap" is the term that immediately comes to mind ......
- Michael_107360AND THE WINNER IS..........SNAT automap!!!!
- Michael_107360Actually what fixed it was adding the floating ip address in the firewall......firewall???? did i forget to mention there is a firewall between F5A and F5B.....sorry about that....i did have SNAT enabled ....but didn't have the float on the firewall just the physicals....thanks for all comments it helped me drive this to solution!!!
