7 TopicsLooking for Setup Advice
Hello, I am looking for some advise for setting up a F5 Big-IP that can accomplish the following things. I only have one public IP address but will be hosting muliple services. I am looking at setting up one VIP that's open to public with ports that are required then when hitting FQDN that it redirects to VIP that is hosting service. Example mysite1.domain.com goes to VIP 10.10.10.100, mysite2.domain.com goes to VIP 10.10.10.110, so on. Is this done by iRule, reverse proxy, or policy. What's the best pratice for setting something up like this. Thanks in advance for the help.Solved1.5KViews0likes8Commentswhat is needed to make floating IP?
I downloaded Big-IP LTM VE 11.3 and start it on my vmware workstation. During configuration from web UI, there's a step where I need to specify self IP and floating IP for VLAN. When I entered and IP address it showed "required". How do I do this on vmware workstation 11?574Views0likes5CommentsConvert HTTP iRule to TCP
We have a client/server application that uses a private written client that connects to a server through the LTM. The client app is installed on the users local workstation and then is used to connect to a virtual server on our LTM. The client sends the initial connection request as a malformed header which contains a session id that is then used for persistence. The current iRule we are using contains HTTP commands, so a HTTP profile is required on the virtual server. But, since this not a true HTTP application, we have some issues when using the HTTP profile. So, I am trying to convert the existing iRule from using the HTTP commands and try and use the TCP payload to get the session id. I am an amateur iRule creator, so I was hoping to get some help and to even see if this is possible. The current iRule is listed below. I want to achieve the same result but with using the TCP payload. That way the HTTP profile will not be needed. Current iRule when RULE_INIT { #Sets logging level (0 = no logging 1 = logging) set ::debug 0 #Sets persistence timeout in seconds set ::timeout 900 } when HTTP_REQUEST { #Checks if Content-Session header exists if { [HTTP::header exists "Content-Session"] }{ #Grab Content-Session header value set sessionid [HTTP::header "Content-Session"] if {$::debug}{ log local0. "Content-Session value for [IP::client_addr] is: $sessionid"} #Persist connection based on Content-Session value catch { persist uie $sessionid $::timeout } } } when HTTP_RESPONSE { #Checks for Content-Session header if { [HTTP::header exists "Content-Session"] }{ #Grap Content-Session header value set sessionid [HTTP::header "Content-Session"] if {$::debug}{ log local0. "Content-Session value for [IP::remote_addr] is: $sessionid"} #Setup Persistence record catch { persist add uie $sessionid $::timeout } } }541Views0likes2Comments3rd interface on BIG-IQ VE
Hi, on my BIG-IQ VE 5.1 I have 3 VMXNET3 network adapters. CLI command ifconfig shows all interfaces (eth0,1,2) but if I connect over the Web GUI I can see just interfaces 1.1 and 1.2 Is it possible to use the 3rd interface as well and assign another VLAN to this interface. Unfortunately I couldn't find any instruction how to do it? Thank you in advance. Reg. Janus378Views0likes3CommentsWhat is the hostname used for?
Hello, Doing a setup of new bigips and I need to add a hostname. What is the hostname/host ip used for? I picked 'use management port IP' for Host address. We would like heartbeat and clustering/peering to go over a specific VLAN/interface. Thank you.299Views0likes2CommentsR-Series Tenant - Need to change Vlan tag
I need to change all of the vlans on my LTM-tenant (15.1.10.4) - The changes are on the tag not the name - I need to keep the names the same and change the tag numbers. [ vlan Core 1978 to vlan Core 978 - about 13 vlans total ]. Put the tenant in provisioned mode. Started by deleting the vlan in the Host f5OS gui (removing the vlan from the LAG and the tenant - then deleting the vlan). Then created a new vlan with the same name and different tag. Then added the vlan to the LAG and tenant. Deployed the tenant. R-Series LAG and tenant setup looks perfect. Tenant still has the old vlan. Found instructions for this procedure which include deleting the vlan from the tenant - which results in the error -- Cannot delete Resource vlan - because Virtual Server references it -- or something like that... -Dave MehlbergSolved99Views0likes8CommentsF5 r10800 not connected to Cisco Nexus 9000
