vCMP host and guest modify management IP
Hi, I need help to modify the management IP of vCMP host and guest and migrate them to new subnet. Existing Setup Two vCMP host on different chassis both having management IP from the same subnet vCMP host 1 management IP: 192.168.1.1/24 vCMP host2 management IP 192.168.1.2/24 There are multiple guest on each of these vcMP host which are in HA setup. They are bridged and have management IP configured within the same subnet as vCMP host. vCMP guest1 management: 192.168.1.3/24 vcMP guest 2 management : 192.168.1.4/24 New Setup I want to move them to new subnet but again both host and guest will be sharing the IP from the same subnet . If the new subnet is 172.19.1.0/24 then : vCMP host 1: 172.19.1.1/24 vCMP host 2 172.19.1.2/24, vCMP guest 1 : 172.19.1.3/24 vCMP guest2: 172.19.1.4/24 My question is can we change the host IP first or guest? Will changing the host IP affect the guest? What is best practice and sequence of steps to follow?
ping source address
Hi All, I thought that all management traffic like ping, traceroute or telnet from ltm to any host usually takes management IP address. But yesterday for one issue I found out when doing telnet to server it was taking self IP address of ltm. Please suggest which IP address will be used while trying to ping, traceroute or telnet? Thanks.Load Balance Servers in the same subnet as managment interface eth0
I have a requirement to load balance servers in my management network. This subnet is also where the mgmt. IP of my LTM device resides. When I try to create a self IP in this subnet I get an error. I've tried a few work-arounds such as creating a VIP in a separate subnet however the F5 still uses it's management interface to forward traffic to the server pool. Is there any work-around for this other than dropping the mgmt. interface and managing the F5 via a self IP in this subnet?
