    Hi Saravanan,

     

    On your core switch, there should be no SVI/VRF for the vlan of the Server Farm. This will break your configuration. Your setup will only work if your server vlan is a L2 vlan on the core switch.

     

    Cheers,

Thanks Kees, I will try your ides in below methods,

 

I try Static route from core to Interface 1 floating IP or use OSPF between this !

 

BIG-IP the default gateway for your server farm, for Interface two! Will configure Server VLAN gateway to pointing the LTM Interface 2 VLANs floating IP!

 

 

 

Thanks

Saravanan

      Thanks Kees, it started working after i moved to Servers VLANs on core to l2.

      any reasons, I unable to understand this?

      When my core learning the Client IPs address with Different routes, But my servers choosing the LTM interface 2?
