configuring 2 css11503s for multiple service load-balancing

aolabisi — Thu, 02 Oct 2003 00:32:33 GMT

first here's my present config on one of my CSS11503:

!************************** CIRCUIT **************************

circuit VLAN33

ip address 19.10.28.211 255.255.255.0

ip virtual-router 2 priority 110 preempt

ip redundant-vip 2 19.10.28.210

ip critical-service 2 UpstreamRouter

circuit VLAN200

ip address 10.15.15.251 255.255.255.0

ip virtual-router 1 priority 110 preempt

ip redundant-interface 1 10.15.15.1

ip critical-service 1 UpstreamRouter

!************************** SERVICE **************************

service BrowServ-1

ip address 10.15.15.21

redundant-index 1

protocol tcp

port 80

active

service BrowServ-2

ip address 10.15.15.22

redundant-index 2

protocol tcp

port 80

active

service UpstreamRouter

ip address 19.10.28.1

active

!*************************** OWNER ***************************

owner BrowServ_Owner

content BrowServ_Rule

add service BrowServ-1

add service BrowServ-2

vip address 19.10.28.210

redundant-index 1

active

!*************************** GROUP ***************************

group BrowServ_Group

vip address 19.10.28.210

add service BrowServ-1

add service BrowServ-2

redundant-index 1

active

here are my questions:

1) how do I configure an additional vip address? e.g. I'd like to configure a vip - 19.10.28.215 to load-balance http traffic to 10.15.15.25 and 10.15.15.26?

2) I presently have a static route in my core router "ip route 10.15.15.0 255.255.255.0 19.10.28.210". (this enables the load-balanced servers to connect to Oracle servers on the Core network). do I need to configure a new route on my core router when I add the additional vip 19.10.28.215?

relevant references and/or examples will be much appreciated.

The following document should help.

1/ configure the following :

service web1

ip address 10.15.15.25

active

service web

ip address 10.15.15.26

active

content WEB

vip address 19.10.28.215

proto tcp

port 80

add service web1

add service web2

active

2/ I would create a redundant-interface and point your static route to this redundant ip address.

you should not use vip address in static route.

VIP address should only be used when you want to reach the vip address not a when you want a direct connection to the real server.
