Need to make 2 Virtual Appliance in r4600 F5
Hello,
If you mean to have 2 tenants in total it's very simple. Just create the vlans you need if not configured already and create a new tenant. You may also need to upload the required iso. Of course you need to have not used all available resources for 1 tenant.
But if you mean you already have one tenant and you want to deploy two more, then it's not possible.
r4600 supports a total of 2 tenants. Check here https://clouddocs.f5.com/training/community/rseries-training/html/rseries_multitenancy.html
If that's the case then you need to upgrade to r4800 at least.

thanks for quick reply. Injeyan_Kostas
Sorry I was not clear earlier seems.
I need to create a new F5 VM within a Tenant. I already have 1 VM. So new VM and current VM will stay within the same tenant. Idea is new VM will use new vlan and new Interface.
For this purpose I am looking to know how to map a new interface , vlan with a new F5 VM
Also I need Base Registration key as License to be used when I bring the F5 VM and try to activate it right ?

Let's clear some things first
Tenant = VM
So you already have one tenant and you need to create a new one.
You have to create the vlans first in F5OS, also trunk if need it.
Then during tenant creation you can assign which vlans you want to use in this tenant.
As for license, tenants use the license of rseries.

Hi Injeyan,
thanks for your reply earlier.
Can you advise how the Bandwidth Throughout works for a Rseries hosted Tenant ? In the VMware I know we can but the throughout license but I wonder for rSeries system how it will work ?
