You are correct. Basically the issue is that the floating IPs (Default Gateway for VLANS on F5s) will conflict with the ASR's VLAN DFGW of 172.19.xyz.1. I don't want to change the .1 on the ASR side since all our servers point to .1 So the current setup is:
F5-1 (Active) ------> Internet 1 [VLANS 110-111, 120-123, 130,140,141,160] ------> Trunk to Core Switch
F5-2 (Passive) -----> Internet 2 [VLANS 110-111, 120-123, 130,140,141,160] -----> Trunk To Core Switch
Future Setup:
F5-1 (Active) ------> Internet 1 ------> Trunk to ASR 1 (All VLANS reside on ASRS) F5-2 (Passive) ------> Internet 2 ------> Trunk to ASR 2 (All VLANS reside on ASRS)
Is there a clean way of doing this without messing around with the nodes/pools on the F5s?
- Brad_ParkerFeb 05, 2016CirrusSo you are going to a routed(L3) connectivity to your nodes/pool members, rather than connecting directly L2 to them?
- RB323_217345Feb 22, 2016NimbostratusThe nodes/pool members are on different VLANs, I'm unsure if the L3 is the best way to go in this situation. Basically the F5 should only be doing the load balancing, not inter-vlan routing anymore, hence why we put in Cisco ASRs. Which way would be the best in your opinion?
