  • For your standard LTM implementation there are 3 primary IP addresses used. The MGMT and an internal and external Self-IP.

     

    Additionally if you plan to use Active/Standby you may want a couple more IP Addresses for floating Self-IPs for those internal and external subnets.

     

    Example with floaters:

     

    LTM0 (Active)

     

    Mgmt:

     

    10.100.0.101/32

     

    Internal

     

    Self-IP - 172.16.1.11

     

    Floater - 172.16.1.13 (same on both)

     

    External

     

    Self-IP - 144.10.1.11

     

    Floater - 144.10.1.13 (same on both)

     

    LTM1 (Standby)

     

    Mgmt:

     

    10.100.0.102/32

     

    Internal

     

    Self-IP - 172.16.1.12

     

    Floater - 172.16.1.13 (same on both)

     

    External

     

    Self-IP - 144.10.1.12

     

    Floater - 144.10.1.13 (same on both)

     

  • one mgt ip each unit On each vlan, you have floating IP (shared) and self ip for each unit

     

  • Well If you are still having tough time, I'd say go see a tutorial on youtube, search "trevor ltm". He touch bases entirely on setting up. Hope it helps.
