Routes failover with CFE needs the FailoverAddresses set to True even if only routes need to be updated #40

Closed Klipope closed 4 years ago

This was tested in Azure and in AWS. It was tested with Static and dynamic declarations for routes (routeTag). For the routes failover to happen (i.e. route update) with CFE it requires : "failoverAddresses": {
set to "enabled": true,

If only "failoverRoutes" is set to True and "failoverAddresses" is set to false, the routes will not be updated. the logs show the following message: info: [f5-cloud-failover] No route operations to run

as soon as the "failoverAddresses" is set to True (of course with no secondary IPs or PIP to move over) the routes are updated. no other setting is changed in the declaration.

Can you explain why this setting is needed and if this is mandatory, could you update the documentation accordingly. Thanks

Tested in 1.5.0 in Azure. I confirm it works with "failoverRoutes" set to true and "failoverAddresses" set to false. @f5-chidambaram @nmenant
