    are you running 4.x?

     

     

    if not 4.x, is this relevant?

    Thanks alot Nittas . i'm running version 11 .

     

    so i can set "vlangroup.forwarding.override" to disable & let my traffic hit my virtual server .

     

    but one more question , the solution number says : "Traffic with a destination MAC address that does not match any of the BIG-IP system's local MAC addresses is handled by an applicable wildcard forwarding virtual server (if one exists), even if a VLAN group is present"

     

    my case will be Wildcard standard Vs containing pool not forwarding VS , will this solution applies to me

    where is the cache server? is it in the same subnet as bigip?

     

     

    if not, in addition to set the db key, can you add default gateway on bigip (it might not sound right) and test? i think it could work.
