Thanks for the reply!
Yes, I am doing thing rush at the moment, because my schedule is very tight :(
To answer your question:
1. VMware shares the same IP ranges with F5 Virtual host and guests.
2.I think VMware guest can be managed by F5 by setting up the default gateway of VMware guests all pointing to F5 guests' self IP on the according vlan.
3. I did the snat at the F5 so now all F5 guest servers are able to access to the Internet and also internal network. I need to do the security policy for the restriction among the vlans. I don't think I need the route domain, because I don't have the overlapping ip addresses.
4. I did setup a bunches of the routing VS to make all routing works.
5. I am not quite sure the stub network means at this case, did you mean the F5 guest network? That is the vCMP guest created on the host...
Anyway please help me as I am in a rush, have to make this work sooner. Sorry for this and thanks again!!!
