How you define the standar "external" vlan ???

Thanks for the clarification.

 

 

So if i have lets say 3 vlans defined:

 

 

each one with different ip addressing.

 

 

and i define a virtual server like this:

 

 

virtual myvirtual {

 

destination 192.168.200.1:any

 

ip protocol tcp

 

pool mypool

 

}

 

 

it will listen on all the vlans for incoming traffic to the 192.168.200.1 even if i don't have an interface on this network on any of the vlans (the self ip of each vlan it's not in the 192.168.200.x network) ? I understand that in order for this 192.168.200.1 ip to work i have to have a route to any of the self ip's of the F5 on any of the vlans.. right ?

 

 

 

Lets say that i have the following vlans with self ip's on each vlan:

 

 

vlan 1 - self ip: 172.18.1.100

 

vlan 2 - self ip: 200.10.10.1

 

vlan 3 - self ip: 10.1.1.100

 

 

and from a client i have the following route:

 

 

route 192.168.200.0/24 10.1.1.100

 

 

this will send the requests for the 192.168.200.1 ip to the 10.1.1.100 self ip o the bigip, and since it will listen on all the vlans for the 192.168.200.1 requests it will be served.

 

 

Same thing if i have a route from another part of the network stating:

 

 

route 192.168.200.0/24 172.18.1.100

 

 

it will be serviced as long as i have a route to the bigip.

 

 

am i right ?
