- Pavel_Sestak_69NimbostratusJust an idea did not think about it too much - what about running each bridge device in separate VLAN and make virtual IPs behind the bridging devices? Someting like this:
- Paul_Szabo_9016Historic F5 AccountFirst stab, it should be just like load balancing anything else, except turn IP address translation off. The BIG-IP will translate the MAC address (and vlan) but otherwise leave the L3-L4 headers relatively untouched. If you are further LBing some servers behind it you can use a nexthop pool to LB the transparent proxies while the IP address translation gets you to the desired end server.
- Paul_Szabo_9016Historic F5 Accountwhups, I see you said "transparent bridge mode". I now think you mean literally then it's not touching the packets, not a transparent proxy. I guess the "bridge" part would be a clue...
