F5 Viprion question
It's all depend on organizations requirement and budget. If you wanted to host two or more environment/client applications i.e Prod & testing, stage, then F5 VIPRION Platform is very much suitable. Its single, powerful Application Delivery Controller (ADC) with modular performance blades you can add or remove without disrupting users or applications. Instead of adding devices and segmenting applications, simply add more power to your existing infrastructure as needs and opportunities arise.
- If i plan to buy Viprion chassis does that means i should buy two chassis or just single chassis with multiple blade?
--> Ideally two chassis for high availability(Active/Active & Standby).
- Related networking question does all blade should connect to switch as trunk? or just primary slot?
--> Options are there but I have connected cable to Primary slots. Its working well in HA.
- How does SSL TPS license work? is it based on chassis or license per blade?
--> As I know, Its is based on chassis license. Please confirm from F5 support Team, if any recent changes has happened.
- I am not seeing on internet people talking about viprion or any kind of review or experience does that means it's something people try to stay away? because of complexity?
--> It's not so complex. So far no issue observed during F5 VIPRIO configuration. Please refer F5 deployment guide or post your query to devcental portal. Expert will guide you, in case any issue
Thanks for your detailed reply.
I was thinking to get one chassis, i thought we have blade level redendency then why i need to duplicate hardware for HA, Just wonder how risky it would be have single chassis with multiple blade?
We are looking for 20k to 40k TPS so which hardware would be perfect for us?
