vCMP Design 5250

Hi All,

 

Anyone have design guide doc for vCMP 5250, we have 2 BIG IP 5250, each box will run with vCMP, on each box we will create 2 vCMP Guests and will form an HA cluster betwee

 

Can I setup like below for vlan and port assignment?

 

First on each vCMP Host, I will create 3 trunks port

 

  • TRUNK_INTERNAL (2.1 and 2.2) -> carry vlan 102 (for vCMP Guest ABC) and 104 (for vCMP Guest DEF) --> Internal facing Link
  • TRUNK_EXTERNAL (2.3 and 2.4) -> carry vlan 101 (for vCMP Guest ABC) and 103 (for vCMP Guest DEF) --> External facing Link
  • TRUNK_HB (1.3 and 1.4) -> back to back between 5250 -> carry vlan 10 (for vCMP Guest ABC) and 20 (for vCMP Guest DEF) - HA

Then the second one I create VLAN Each vCMP Guest will need 3 VLAN

 

vCMP Guest ABC
  • VLAN_A (TRUNK_EXTERNAL tag 101)
  • VLAN_B (TRUNK_INTERNAL tag 102)
  • VLAN_HB_INTERNAL (TRUNK_HB tag 10)
vCMP Guest DEF
  • VLAN_C (TRUNK_EXTERNAL tag 103)
  • VLAN_D (TRUNK_INTERNAL tag 104)
  • VLAN_HB_INTERNAL (TRUNK_HB tag 20)

Does above port and vlan assignment is the correct design or standard best practise to make the vCMP work?

 

Thanks
