NimbostratusHow Does The F5 Handel Traffic Originating From A Service to Clients.
Hi, i am new to F5 and i just had a quick question,
i have an f5 it is running a VS for a radius server on port 1812, i can ping the VIP from any client and the Pool is all green and it responds ok so I'm guessing everything is on with comms, my question is this radius server will need proxy requests to other server beyond my f5 but when i ping from my server to a radius server that i need to commincate with does the F5 block this packet, as i don't see anything on the firewall?
so traffic flow is new traffic request from My Radius Server--->F5--->Firewall--->Customer Radius Server
Hi,
I assume that your F5 device has 2 VLAN, the external VLAN where the RADIUS message comes in and the internal VLAN where your RADIUS server is located.
You need to create a VS listening to the internal VLAN of your RADIUS server so your F5 device will pick up the traffic from your RADIUS server. The VS could be the IP Forward type enabled on internal VLAN with destination address 0.0.0.0/0 or the customer RADIUS server's IP address if you want a specific setting.
Good luck!
