For ARS: - Create an F5 farm for udp/111, tcp/111, and the port ars listens on - Enable session persistence based on src ip (needed due to floating licenses) - Configure a server group in ARS
For MidTier: - Create and F5 farm for tcp/80 and tcp/443 - Enable session persistence based on src ip (needed because midtier does not synchronize/use central store for session information) When you configure the midtier as to what arservers to point to, there are a couple of options: - point it to the ars farm: this causes issues because all midtier sessions go to the same arserver - point each midtier server to the individual server When working with the F5, you need the arservers to be on a network that gives a route to the db that does not traverse the F5. This is typically accomlished using a back end network that the arservers and db servers are connected to.
