Multiple Default Gateways
Hi, I have a question regarding default gateway configuration. Please refer to the following setup: We currently have an L4 HA device setup (R2600) in Active-Standby mode, and both units are in the same subnet. The default gateway is set to 192.168.1.1, which is a VRRP address on the L3 side. Since F5 devices synchronize route configurations across devices during config sync, any change to the routing table is applied to both units. Given this, is it possible to configure different default gateways per device in an F5 HA pair? Specifically, I would like to set each unit's default gateway to the real IP of a different L3 device: Default GW for L4 #1: 192.168.1.2 Default GW for L4 #2: 192.168.1.3 I'd like to hear the opinion of experts on whether this is possible and if there is a supported way to achieve this. Thank you.
HA between rSeries tenant and iSeries appliance.
According to F5 documentation, the BIG-IP system supports either homogeneous or heterogeneous hardware platforms within a device group. I want to confirm if anyone has tried to put rSeries tenants and iSeries appliances in the same cluster? Obviously, I understand they will need to be on same version and of course vlans will be same on both. If you have tried this before, what were your challenges and how did you overcome them? I am considering this approach because it makes migration easier and seamless.
Intermittent disconnections with peer
Good morning I have a small problem with my devices, and I cannot find the cause or origin. The problem is that intermittently in the Device management --> Overview, we view on each node that the peer appears as disconnected for a few seconds, and then immediately returns to the in sync state. This does not affect the operation at any time. Our equipment is an F5 virtual edition on HyperV. We have performed tests, traffic captures and reviewed configurations, without finding any errors. Best regards
HA Configuration (One in primary and One in DR)
Hi folks, I currently have HA pair (active/passive) in a primary data center and we are bringing up a DR. wondering can I split up the HA pair (One in primary and One in DR) and continue to have HA with utilizing different subnets? We are using multiple IPSEC tunnels to connect the sites so we are still working on whether we can extend subnets but if we can't I wanted to ask if different subnets are possible. Thank you any info is appreciated
Clustering among VCMPs and Tenants ( rSeries )
Hello guys, we are approaching a migration from a vCMP cluster to a Tenant ( on r5600 ) cluster . VLAN/Networks betweeen old and new nodes will be the same and the migration will be VIPs based ( not every vs at once ). I was wondering if it is possible to add Tenant nodes to the already vCMP device group so that we can continue to have a synced configuration during the migration . Has anyone ever configured a mixed device group with vCMPs and Tenants running on r-series ? thank you in advanceLogging Configuration in LTM HA
Hello everyone I'm doing a logging lab and I'm asking for your help to understand some things. I have two BIG-IP LTM in HA and a Qradar logging server. I have configured the Qradar as syslog servers at each HA node. At the Qradar level I receive the active logs but the standby only sends errors like "BIGIP_TMM_TIMMERR_PMBR_BACK_UP. I'd like to know if it's normal for the standby to send only error messages, and in general I'd like to understand how logging works in HA and what type of event each device sends to the server. thanks in advance
How to force close TLS sessions in a failover scenario
Hi, We have an application behind Big-IP which doesn't handle failovers well. The Big-IP keeps all TLS sessions consistent and open during failover but the application doesn't support TLS resume for a session and this causes problems in the app. I'm looking for a way to close TLS sessions for a specific VS in a failover scenarios. We're on version 16.1.4.1 Any suggestions? ThanksConfigure HA on trial environment
Hello everyone, I have to two 30 day trial SN. and i am using some instructor to perform ha sync between them but the sync doesn't work. the same instruction help me to set up sync in a production environment. is it possible that HA not supported on trial version ? I'm using BIG-IP VE Version 17.0.0.
