2.System LEDs Status Verifying

Physically check LED on BIG-IP to verify the hardware operation.

Figure 1 Standard Operating Front panel LEDs Status


3.System Information Verifying

a. Software Information

Check software version and other information using bigpipe version command line

or System menu -> Console in web browser management.

[admin@iisvlrsd0401:Active] ~ # bigpipe version

Kernel:

Linux 2.4.21-9.4.4.65.0smp

Package:

BIG-IP Version 9.4.4 65.1

Final Edition

b. License Information

Web Configuration “System >License”


c. Memory Information

Check Memory by use “b memory” command

[admin@iisvlrsd0401:Active] ~ # b memory

MEMORY STATISTICS --

| (Host) Total = 371.7MB Used = 350.3MB

| (TMM) Total = 3.636GB Used = 25.05MB

d. Syslog Information

Check syslog server by “b syslog list”

[admin@iisvlrsd0401:Active] ~ # b syslog list

syslog {

remote server 10.88.127.19

}

e. SNMP Information

Check SNMP server by Web management System > SNMP


f. NTP Information

Check NTP server by “b ntp list all” command

[admin@iisvlrsd0401:Active] ~ # b ntp list all

ntp {

partition Common

include none

servers

10.20.1.33

192.168.1.25

timezone "Asia/Bangkok"

}



Verify by “ping command”

[admin@iisvlrsd0401:Active] ~ #

[admin@iisvlrsd0401:Active] ~ # ping -s 1000 10.89.30.254

PING 10.89.30.254 (10.89.30.254) 1000(1028) bytes of data.

1008 bytes from 10.89.30.254: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=1.05 ms







--- 10.89.30.254 ping statistics ---

7 packets transmitted, 7 received, 0% packet loss, time 6072ms

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 1.051/2.013/5.722/1.534 ms, pipe 2



Access Web Management System > High availability > Redundancy

Check device status by “b failover show” command

Active device

[admin@iisvlrsd0401:Active] ~ # b failover show

FAILOVER active for 443d 09:30:16

Standby device

[admin@iisvlrsd0402:Standby] ~ # b failover show

FAILOVER standby for 443d 09:16:08


6. Failover redundancy Testing

NO. Network Test Case Remark

6.1 Reboot F5_ Active

Expected results

Expected results Pass Fail

Standby device is promoted to Active and takes over the

traffic processing



6.2 Shutdown DST-SW-01 interface F0/1

Expected results



traffic processing



6.3 Shutdown SW-01 interface F1/0/1

Expected results
