Active / Standby Failover between BIGIP 1600 and 6400
Hi,
Haven't been able to find anything on the askF5 or Devcentral site as to whether the following is possible or not:
Currently I have two 6400's setup, need to break the pair and set one up at another data center, wanted to use the 1600 in the meantime as a fallback.
I was just looking to do network based failover between the two units. They would be using VLAN and Gateway Failsafe.
The end goal would be active / standby failover with BIGIP 6400 as the Active unit and BIGIP 1600 as the standby. Both are running:
BIG-IP Version 9.4.5 1086.1
Hotfix HF2 Edition
The 6400 has more interfaces configured into Trunks (6 copper) and the 1600 has only 4 copper which is one problem I can see.
Unfortunately I don't have enough spare equipment to test this.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Bruce
