We utilize two LB's for failover in case the primary goes down. 192.168.100.6 is the primary and configured as a host while 192.168.100.5 is the secondary and is configured as a network. We have a couple of vip configured with this setup and this is the only one i can't ping.

 

 

I'm able to telnet to the vip and it forwards me to the primary node on the pool. Basically, the LB is working as designed, but im curious why it does not respond to pings. I checked the vlan configs on our router and all is good. We're running on Version: 9.4.1.
