Problem with SSL module

marcin.mazurek — Thu, 17 Nov 2005 08:29:01 GMT

I've got 6509 with SSL, CSM inside. I'm having problem with creating connectin to VIP on 443 port pointing to SSL module. My configuration is based on "Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Content Switching Module with SSL Installation and Configuration" document , Appendix B; B-7; CSM-S Configuration Example (Router Mode, Server NAT). It's seems to be simple but it's not working. Could anybody take a look at these excerpt from config.

VLAN to outside is 200; to SSL 150 (admin), 130 traffic; to clients 120.

ssl-proxy module 4 allowed-vlan 120,130,150

vlan 200 client

I can connect to real for WWW traffic but can't for SSL traffic.

192.168.200.110 WWW-TEST 8 OPERATIONAL 0

any hint? Can't figure it out:(

Looks like the status of your ssl serverfarm is "FAILED".

So that is the first thing to look for.

I would remove the keyword 'local' from the real definition.

FAILED actually means the CSM does not even have an arp entry for the SSL address.

So I would verify connectivity by issuing ping from the CSM to the SSLM.

You could try to configure the MSFC in vlan 130 as well just to see if you can ping from MSFC to CSM or MSFC to SSLM.

Gilles.
