How to clear Don't Fragment (DF) bit

Oh. And VS addresses DON"T need to be in the same vlan as a self IP. In fact you don't need ANY selfip on the VS VLAN. You just have to ensure the traffic routes THROUGH the BigIP. I'm not sure you'll find anyone who can successfully argue the other way round.

 

 

And there's not a lot wrong with static ARP entries. Used them myself lots of times in the past. Along with proxy-arp and other ways to get traffic to flow where you want it to (I even re-write nexthop MAC's on my bigip's to selectively direct traffic via transparent devices.
