CSM-S SSL card redundancy

gtambour — Thu, 20 Oct 2005 14:11:36 GMT

We have 2 Catalyst 6500s with CSM-S cards installed. The CSMs are in redundant configuration already. The SSL offloading is configured in bridged mode. CSM provides redundancy for the client VLAN. How do we provide redundancy for the SSL cards? Do we use HSRP for the bridged VLAN that exists in the SSL? Do we use HSRP for the SSL admin VLAN? Is there a document the references redundancy configuration specifiacally for the CSM-S (SSL daughter cards)? Thanks.

I guess you can use the HSRP and CSM-S failover configuration to provide redundancy. The following document presents a scenario similar to yours. Hope this helps.

Guess, this link does not help much for the SSL redundancy.. Does anyone have some working configs..?

George, Did you get this working... If so, would you mind sharing your configs.. I have a similar requirement, but i have my SSL offloading in routed mode, whereas the Web Client/Server Vlans are in bridged mode.
