NimbostratusThanks foe your response . So why the option use ressource vlan/tunnel does exist when we create new route in the f5 dowumentation said that when we use this option this mean that the network is direcrly connected
| Use VLAN/Tunnel | Select this option when you want the next hop in the route to be a VLAN or tunnel. This option works well when the destination address you specify in the routing entry is a network address. Selecting a VLAN/tunnel name as the resource implies that the specified network is directly connected to the BIG-IP system. In this case, the BIG-IP system can find the destination host simply by sending an ARP request to the hosts in the specified VLAN, thereby obtaining the destination host’s MAC address. |
