Route Domain Help

Hi,

 

I have a situation where I want a virtual server sitting in a route domain, but I want traffic pushed to my backend servers which are not in a route domain. Is this possible? For example I have self IP's on the F5 in VLAN 600 (which resides in Route Domain 1), and I also have self IP's on the F5 in VLAN 400 (which is part of the default Route Domain 0). I want connections hitting my VS in Route Domain 1 to be sent to my backend servers in VLAN 400. I have configured this on the F5 and I see the traffic on the front end (RD1), but no traffic gets to my backend servers :(

 

Any help would be much appreciated!

 

Regards,

    what route domain strict isolation and parent-child configuration are you using?

    I have removed strict isolation but I'm not using any parent-child configuration.

    That was the problem - added the default RD as the parent. Thanks so much for your help nisass!
