3 TopicsBIGIP in a network Edge device role
Hi all, I need some assistance if possible. I'm familiar with F5s in a conventional load balancing role inside the corporate network, but we're building a new environment with a pair of 4000-series devices in a configsync pair. I have a DMZ network behind the corporate firewall, bound via LAGs to the 1Gb ports, and a set of internal VLANs bound via LAGs to the 10G ports which will be used for application services, Hypervisor management etc. We'd like to leverage APM to secure all traffic, essentially making them the edge devices for the internal environment. I guess all services are going to be presented via VIPs/Pools/Nodes, but I'm not sure how to set up the basic routes/outgoing traffic rules, default gateways. Has anyone got any guidance or resources on how to configure a BIGIP in this sort of role? I've has a look around but couldn't find anything obvious... Many thanks in advanceSolved681Views0likes4CommentsBIGIP in a network Edge device role

Is it possible to configure two interfaces on a BIG-IP i4000 to be in active/standby mode? We have two 10G fiber connections on the i4000, each fiber is going to a different network switch so trunking or port aggregation on the switch side will not work. I would like to have one interface, i.e. 5.0 be active and have interface 6.0 take over should the link on interface 5.0 go down.I am running version 12.1.2 on the F5.198Views0likes1Comment
