thank you for the response nitass.

 

 

mac masquerade is configured for the floating IP of a VLAN on a redundant bigip setup.

 

 

But sometimes, a virtual IP address may reside on a different, say VLAN A and the servers in the pool behind the VIP could be in another VLAN, say VLAN B. In this case, too, will the VIP MAC address be the mac masquerade addr of floating IP in VLAN A?
