Hi Soap,

 

in a VIPRION you will assign a so called cluster IP address (hold by the current cluster master blade) and blade specific management IP addresses.

 

It will be necessary, to connect each blades management interface to the management network. Traffic on the dedicated management interface will not be bridged internally.

 

It´s best practice, to reserve management IP addresses for all slots in chassis (and already assign them) even the slots are still empty.

 

Different story for TMOS interfaces (production or however you want to call it). Your aggregated link connects to all blades in the chassis and each blade is accepting traffic and selecting an internal TMM instance (perhaps on another blade) to handle it.

 

Thanks, Stephan
