Partitions, Routing Domains, Default Routes oh my!

Hi Everyone,

 

I was hoping someone might be able to help me with a design query. When I set up my F5, i set it up with a two arm approach using only the common partition. External traffic came in one interface and traffic destined for internal went out another port. Very simple setup.

 

I now have to have internal traffic hit the F5 and was thinking about creating a partition called "internal", creating a new routing domain (to isolate the traffic) and set it up as a one-arm approach. What do you guys think of this setup.

 

the common partition is setup like so:

 

my external ip we will say is 220.x.x.x (default IPv4) and the other interface is setup like inside network (destination 10.0.0.0).

 

I want my new partition to have the following route:

 

internal 10.105.x.x traffic.. i need it to ignore the default route from the other partition.

 

Just wondering how would i do this. Connect anotehr interface, create teh partition called internal and then create a routing domain isolated from the other partition, then add a route that points back out teh interface that it came into?

  • yeah it sounds pretty much right. only thing is the vlan and self IPs, interface is possible first, the partition and route domain, then the vlans / self IPs and make sure they are in the right partition / route domain.
