Layer 2 connectivity unavailable with QinQ and vCMP Guests.

Hello experts!

 

I am relatively new to F5 and I'm trying to bring our Virpion chassis online however, I'm having difficulty in creating a network connection to vCMP Guests.

 

I have several VLAN's coming into the blade from different customers. Some have the same VLAN ID so I am segregating them using Customer Tags and QinQ. My trunks are configured for Double Tagging. On the host vCMP, I cam create a Self IP and ping the gateways in each VLAN, however on the vCMP I cannot..

 

I have created several guest hosts with no special configuration to test.. If I remove Double Tagging on the host, it works and if I re-add it, it breaks again. I can always ping the addresses from the host vCMP, but not from the guests..

 

Does anybody have any idea what might be the issue or where to look?

 

Thanks in advance!
