Hi,
I see that you check this post:
https://devcentral.f5.com/questions/cant-ping-active-ltms-self-ip-or-floating-ip
Thanks for your prompt reply. Would you know how I can get ping to work on the Active node? and not just on the Standby node?
This behavior is by design. When you try to ping a SelfIP on an interface that is not the interface you are originating from, it won't work on the Active device. You can ping the standby because, once you get back there, the Active device knows where to find that IP.
it is your case? if not can you confirm that you don't activate "packet filter", you don't use ASM or you don't setup mac masquerading on the BIG-IP HA pair...
Regards
