What addresses is the portal is listening on?

Hi!

 

We have multiple pairs of BIG-IP's running versions 4.2.7 and 4.5.11. We are working on rolling out an application that will map a requested wide-ip. As a BIG-IP can be configured in only one datacenter with-in 3-DNS, we have added a second BIG-IP to 3-DNS using one of its secondary IP addresses. This hasn't caused any problems until now since we pull the base servers and attempt to connect to the BIG-IP, which isn't listening.

 

 

Is there a method call that can be made to a device to deterimine what IP addresses the portal is listening on?

 

 

 

Thanks.

    Hi,

     

     

    There's no method that returns what IP address the Portal is listening on, i.e. you'll need to know the Portal's address in order to make iControl calls, so there's no usefulness in having a method that returns something you had already known.
