I'd recommend checking out the free video training at https://f5.learn.com

 

Put simply the VIP is a listener on the BIG-IP that receives incoming traffic. A pool is a traffic destination connected to the BIG-IP where the BIG-IP can send destination traffic, usually acting as a reverse proxy.

 

Hi, is 1 VIP serving 1 Pool?

are they one to one?
