Monitoring node with npath routing

Hi Guys

 

 

I've this question regadin the node monitor with npath routing.

 

 

The configuration is

 

Vs 10.15.50.54:389

 

with fast L4 profile loose closed enabled.

 

the real server node are

 

10.15.50.21 and 10.15.50.22 with loopback address 10.15.50.54.

 

I,ve this problem:

 

the ldap service is activated on loopback address of the real server and my monitor against the real server address does not work.

 

Is possible send the monitor to the mac address of real server and ip of loopback?

 

Otherwise I'm forced to activate the service also on the real ip (10.15.50.21-22)

    It's working with the Transparent monitor:

     

    1. I have set alias IP of the VIP/Loopback in the transparent monitor and assigned it to the pool as single monitor.

     

    2. LTM is really sending the helthchecks to the Loopback address.

     

    3. I've played with the loopback address on the serve then to see if the pool member goes down and it did.

     

    4. Changed the loopback back and the pool member was green again.
