Add custom VIP to virtual site reference in HTTP and TCP Load Balancers
I want to use the same custom VIP for a load balancer across multiple sites and I know I can simply add multiple site object references to the custom vip section of the http load balancer, but I'll need to do this for any new site added instead of relying on labels.
I already use virtual sites to build site-mesh-groups and the same sites I also want to use the same custom VIP for a service. Hence allowing IP to be configured for custom VIP when selecting a virtual site would simplify configuration life cycle management. The attached screenshots help clarify the ask.

We're also desperately waiting for this feature.
We've setup multiple individual Secure Mesh Sites and "grouped" them using virtual-sites (essentially PROD and non-PROD). We're announcing virtual IPs towards the firewalls via BGP and make use of ECMP. If this feature was available, we could easily include/add additional non-PROD nodes into the PROD virtual-site and increase performance short-term when needed. Now we'd have to tough every single HTTP load balancer (more than 30!) and add the additional nodes individually...
This feature request is already 1.5 years old and there's no sign from the F5 team yet???
I have a customer requires this, and I think its a very important capability.
I have two customers with this same request.
