Traffic Group Failover when Trunk Fails

Hello,   I have a pair of F5 LTMs running as Active-Standby in a traffic group. Both the LTMs have trunks configured from a switch.   What will happen when all the interface in the trunk fails ...

    Hi

     

    You should setup HA-GROUP if you track trunk interface.

     

    HA-GROUP setup should be on each of your device(Active and Standby)

     

    HA-GROUP configuration isn`t syncable feature.

     

    please refer to it.

Thanks swjo!

 

I have one more follow up query. If configure both LTMs with HA groups, how often they compare the weight of their HA group to find who got the better metric and if it needs traffic failover?
