LoadBalancing cases

Hi Guys

 

I try to make a high availability test,

 

1. I test with the option 'Force offline', the traffic is loadbalanced to the peer.

 

2. However, the traffic don't pass to the peer F5 when:

 

a) I put the F5 interfaces down (WebGUI),

 

b) I forced offline the pool member.

 

Is it a normal behaviour?

 

Should be the same if I put the switch trunk off?

 

Thanks in advance.
