HA Vlan FialSafe Question

if i have failsafe enabled on one external vlan at both units ( active & standby )

let's assume that this vlan post is down on both units , both units will try to failover to each other , what will happen ?

 

with my Juniper firewall i have command on HA called " master always exists " , is there similar one at F5 , this will ensure that in such case one box will be the master

    If the VLAN isn't critical for your backend systems to function, why is it being used for failover?
