i thought it wasn't allowde to use the mgmt for syncing but you can, at least until v10.thanks. by the way, i just knew it is possible in 11.x as well.

 

 

ConfigSync and device clustering recommendations

 

 

• Configure the ConfigSync address to use a self IP address the internal VLAN, or dedicated HA VLAN.

 

• Avoid using the mgmt interface for ConfigSync/device service traffic.

 

 

By default, the management address is not available for ConfigSync/device clustering communication. It is possible to configure the BIG-IP system to use the management IP address to accommodate device group communication and synchronization by enabling the configsync.allowmanagement db variable. However, F5 recommends using the self IP address the internal VLAN for ConfigSync traffic.sol14135: Defining network resources for BIG-IP high availability features (11.x)
