Syncronize to LTM running same configuration in separate LANs

Hi,

 

How can I synchronize [mirroring] periodically two F5 LTM configured exactly the same [same Traffic groups and VS]. The idea is use one LTM in Datacenter1 and the second LTM in Datacenter2 [Note: they are in different LANs]. And Above them there will be a GTM who will resolve the traffic and decide to which LTM to go.

 

All suggestions are welcome.

    Are the VIPs on different LANs? You could create a Sync Only Device Group to Sync the configuration across both devices, however, this means the IP addressing will be the same. From your description this won't be the case. I don't believe there is an alternative method if IP addressing is distinct in both DCs

    Both F5s have got the same config: Virtual servers, external/internal Vlans, traffic groups. But they are in different LANs [Data Centers]. So the idea is: - If a LTM goes down, the GTM redirects the traffic to the other F5 LTM, and the users should not note that failover. The mirroring between them is for the stateful scenario. I am chasing how can I do this synchronisation between them [traffic mirroring].
