CirrostratusPath Check Monior to trigger Failover
Good Afternoon
I have two traffic groups and two LTMS.
F5 Box1 Traffic group 1 is Active Traffic Group 2 Standby
F5 Box 2 Traffic group 2 is Active Traffic Group 1 Standby
I want to do a Path Check Monitor to go out Box 1 simple Get req for google .com and one other site . if the get isn't successful. I would like Traffic Group 1 on F5 Box 1 to fail over to F5 Box 2
Does anyone have an example or docs i can refer to ..
Thanks in advance

As it was mentioned HA Groups are a way to go.
Other than that for monitoring the gateway devices gateway failsafe is also a nice option (there is even a vlan failsafe but as the pool members are not directly connected it will not work):

Other that an icall script could also monitor the logs and trigger a failover:

F5 has so many ways to do different things it is crazy 🙂 . Do not forget to mark the solution that works for you as accepted if it is found.
