Create a virtual server on internal vlan

Hello,

 

Is it possible to create a virtual server with a destination ip address on the internal VLAN instead of the external VLAN ?

 

On the documentation, I can see the following comment for the "Destination Address" field :

Note: The IP address for this field needs to be on the same subnet as the external self-IP address.

https://techdocs.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/manuals/product/ltm-basics-11-6-0/2.html

 

I'd need to create some VS on the internal VLAN, so I'm wondering if it's technally possilbe.

 

Exemple :

Internal VLAN 20 - Internal Self IP 10.10.20.100 /24

External VLAN 10 - External Self IP 10.10.10.100 /24

 

I need to create the VS 10.10.20.110. The source servers and the backend servers are on the same VLAN.

Source Server 10.10.20.200 > F5 Big-IP VS On internal VLAN 10.10.20.110 > Backend Servers 10.10.20.250 and 10.10.20.251

 

Thank you.

 

Kind regards,

Dazni

Hi Dazni,

 

You can use the same subnet as pool members for virtual IP.

"Source Address Translation" should be active on virtual server.
