Guys, this is a bit misleading. In Cisco world an Etherchannel is not necessarily a trunk. I have Etherchannel that is configured as an access port on a Vlan.
Speaking of clarifying terms, what is referred to here as an "interface" is more appropriately called a "network interface card (NIC)," or "network interface."
Jason and john : great video firstly, one query. When I have snat with automap, does it take the self ip or floating ip for my translation ? Assuming that my Devices are in HA.
+Leke Oluwatosin (Laykay) thanks for the question! A node is a logical object on the BIG-IP that identifies the IP address of a physical resource on the network. A pool member is a logical object that represents a physical node (and a service) on the network. So, a node is the IP address while a pool member is the IP address and service port. Here's more info if you're interested: support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/manuals/product/ltm_configuration_guide_10_0_0/ltm_pools.html
+Nitin Ahuja no, a node object is just an IP address, pool members are IP address plus a port. So you could use ip-based monitors like ping to ensure availability of the node and tcp/udp/etc monitors to ensure availability of the different services available at that IP address. A virtual server is also IP+port (or IP alias/port alias) that is the basic block of how traffic is serviced by the BIG-IP. If there is no vip, there is no traffic allowed through the box.
+Nitin Ahuja Thanks for the great question! Node and VIP are not the same thing. A VIP is a virtual server on the BIG-IP (those terms are used interchangeably), and a node is the IP address of a physical device on the network. I know there are a lot of terms floating around here, so this link may provide a little more clarification on everything: devcentral.f5.com/questions/node-vs-member
Sorry to hear that! We did reshoot this video in lightboard format, hopefully the update is a little less confusing for you: ua-cam.com/video/2YRKTyMgV4M/v-deo.html.
Pity you jumped over the Vlan Group functionality so carelessly. It's not a basic concept. Considering you can literally vlan group 2 overlapping subnets.
No matter how many times I these guys explaining topics, I always find something new... Thanks for you putting this up...

Exactly. Trunking relates to 802.1Q whereas etherchannel relates to interface bundles or NIC teaming as some literature call it.

abhijith ks snat automap will use the floating self as first preference, see support.f5.com/csp/article/K7336
So pool member=Node+Port literally?
+Leke Oluwatosin (Laykay) pool member=node+port, yes. A Pool is a collection of node+port resources.

F5 Nomenclature quite similar to the HPE/Aruba world
谢谢。
its a confusing orientation. I was not expecting this from such big guns of F5.

yeaup this video is informative thanks.
