Virtual Server creation
Hello,
I am new to F5 and using the evaluation version of F5 (Big IP LTM Virtual Edition). I am facing problem while creating the virtual server for tomcat application.
F5 Big-IP LTM VE is running on VMPlayer. And I can access the admin page of F5 via https://>
I want to test F5 with 3 tomcat applications which are running as cluster. All my three tomcat instances are on same machine with different port. http://:8081//cluter-example/test.jsp http://:8082//cluter-example/test.jsp http://:8083//cluter-example/test.jsp I tested out successfully this cluster with Apache server.
As I do not have much idea as how to create Virtual server which will use my newly created pool which has all the three tomcat instances.
I tried to create Virtual server with following parameter: Type : host Address : some random IP address. Service port : 80 with HTTP VLAN and tunnel traffic : All VLAN and tunnel SNAT Pool : autoMap
Afterward I try to access the virtual server as http://>:80 And then getting nothing (I am expecting it should go to one of the tomcat instance) I tried with http://>:80/cluster-example/test.jsp but same result.
In Health monitor side I used Send String : GET /cluster-example/test.jsp
Please let me know what are the things I am missing and why given virtual IP with 80 port as HTTP... its not redirecting to tomcat application side.
