CirrusNo response after added virtual server IP address as floating self-IP address
NimbostratusIm confused, you said floating IP but you also said VS, are you adding a floating IP and thinking it will be the VIP for a pool?
VS1 = VIP1 (Application 1) VS2 = VIP2 (Application 2)
Self IP = IP in segment used to to reach into segments for monitoring or other purposes.
A Self IP is just that, in an HA cluster you could have 2-3 IP's per VLAN. 2x would be 1 Self IP (Non-Floating) per device in your HA group. The 3rd IP would be the floating IP added to the Active node and synced across to the standby. Floating IP's sync, self IP's do not. The Floating IP can be used as a default gateway for instance since it will always follow the active member.
What are you trying to accomplish with said "Self/Floating IP"
CirrusI understand the difference between floating and non-floating IP addresses, but I don't understand that a virtual server can be hosted on an IP address that is not defined as a floating IP address.
