VLAN on irtual Edition.

Hi Karthik,

 

 

This is not issue is not specific to VE. You can put the management interface as well as any other port on the same physical network (I don't advise this for security reasons), but they must be on separate subnets for routing and security reasons. I would just assign two IPs on the same interface (call it 'internal') on your host machine, then connect them virtually in Workstation and give the management NIC an IP on one subnet and the other interface an address on the other subnet.

 

 

Jason wrote up a sweet article on the "physical layer" connectivity aspects of LTM VE: http://devcentral.f5.com/weblogs/jason/archive/2010/02/16/if-you-havent-yet-downloaded-the-big-ip-ltm-ve.aspx

 

 

Hope this helps. Take care!
