NimbostratusF5 UAG Health Monitors for Exchange 2010
I was wondering what the best Health monitors would be best deployed using an F5 loadbalancing 2 UAG's in front of an Internal F5 Loadbalancing 4 Exchange 2010 CAS servers. Would it be best to go directly to the 4 CAS's from the UAG's?
The internal F5 LBS is working successfully using the advanced health Monitors specified in the F5 Deployment document f5-exchange-2010-dg.pdf but im assuming the connections/responces will be different to the UAG so I was hoping someone has had a similar deployment?

Probably too late but we are working on a UAG setup and here is what we did:
F5 VIP (UAG VIP) => 2 UAG servers (Array with Non integrated NLB) => F5 VIP (SharePoint) => 2 SharePoint servers
So connections to UAG servers are load balanced by the first UAG VIP and The Connections from the UAG servers are load balanced by the second SharePoint VIP to the sharepoint servers.
Not sure this the right setup but it works.- JoeTheFifthProbably too late but we are working on a UAG setup and here is what we did:
