but the network failover works when i shutdown the port on the switch where port 1.8 on ltm is connected to.

what do you mean? what happened after shutting down network failover interface (1.8)? did it go active/active?

by the way, have you checked tmsh show sys failover cable?

root@(ve11a)(cfg-sync In Sync)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) show sys failover ?
Options:
  cable  Displays the status that the failover daemon detects on the serial
         cable from its failover peer. It also shows what the failover peer
         detects on the serial cable. An active BIG-IP will see a zero from its
         failover peer. A standby BIG-IP will see a one from its failover peer.
