VMware HCX
VMware NSX
VMware NSX-T Data Center
F5 BIG-IP
Cause 1: MAC Change is enabled and MAC Learning is disabled in the segment profile defined for the segment used by F5 BIG-IP VMs
Cause 2: The F5 BIG-IP VM is configured with the same network range and subnet on both data plane and VIP virtual IP network.
Resolution for Cause 1: Ensure that MAC Change is disabled and MAC Learning is enabled in the segment profile defined for the segment used by F5 BIG-IP VMs
Resolution for Cause 2: Ensure the Data plane segment and VIP of the F5 BIG-IP VMs are on different networks/subnets
