LC = GTM + LTM ??

Hello,

 

I'm having a demo in a customer who needs the capability of GTM and Link Controller. While provisioning I tried using only GTM and LTM activated. After configuration, both the objectives of GTM and Link Controller are achieved. So I got to a conclusion that, the customer should only buy GTM and LTM, no need to buy extra Link Controller license.

 

Is this correct?

 

Thanks.

 

application delivery
availability
BIG-IP DNS
deployment
design
LTM

    Hi,

     

    With GTM + LTM you can do more than with Link Controller, but you're right if your customer wants to replace Link Controller or an equivalent he has to buy LTM + GTM.

    Hi

     

    LC = Subset of (LTM+GTM) so for sure with a box having GTM+LTM there are much more features avaliable to your customer.
