Floating IP the same on HA pair?

I am setting up a pair of BIG-IP VE in my lab and following a HA lab guide from F5.   The configuration has me setting different floating IPs for each BIG IP.   BIG-IP_1   Internal Self IP 1...

Hi,

 

This is happening to me as well, I have configured the same Floating IP Address [internal] for both VE F5s before joining them as HA pair, and the behaviour is a bit weird as sometimes, depending on which one is Active and which one is Standby, it loads the page from the Webserver and sometimes it gives me time-out.

 

I am thinking in building them up again using different Floating IP Addresses and then join them as HA.

 

Have you manage to resolve that issue? Any suggestion on the new implementation I am going to go through again.
