Ace redirection

[j.worley]

I'm trying to have port 443 traffic terminate on the Ace pair, and talk to backend servers via port 10080 instead of  port 80, is that possible?

[Dev Vishwakarma]

yes, that is possible.

Here is a sample configuration:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/interfaces_modules/services_modules/ace/v3-00_A2/configuration/ssl/guide/sslgd/terminat.html#wp1146336

Just use the port 10080 instead of port80

serverfarm host SFARM1

  rserver SERVER1 10080

    inservice

Devendra

You might want to check out this new product called ITD.

Simple and faster solution:

ITD provides :

1. ASIC based multi-terabit/s L3/L4 load-balancing at line-rate
2. No service module or external L3/L4 load-balancer needed. Every N7k port can be used as load-balancer.
3. Redirect line-rate traffic to any devices, for example web cache engines, Web Accelerator Engines (WAE), video-caches, etc.
4. Capability to create clusters of devices, for example, Firewalls, Intrusion Prevention System (IPS), or Web Application Firewall (WAF), Hadoop cluster
5. IP-stickiness
6. Resilient (like resilient ECMP)
7. VIP based L4 load-balancing
8. NAT (available for EFT/PoC). Allows non-DSR deployments.
9. Weighted load-balancing
10. Load-balances to large number of devices/servers
11. ACL along with redirection and load balancing simultaneously.
12. Bi-directional flow-coherency. Traffic from A-->B and B-->A goes to same node.
13. Order of magnitude OPEX savings : reduction in configuration, and ease of deployment
14. Order of magnitude CAPEX savings : Wiring, Power, Rackspace and Cost savings
15. The servers/appliances don’t have to be directly connected to N7k
16. Monitoring the health of servers/appliances.
17. N + M redundancy.
18. Automatic failure handling of servers/appliances.
19. VRF support, vPC support, VDC support
20. Supported on both Nexus 7000 and Nexus 7700 series.
21. Supports both IPv4 and IPv6
22. N5k / N6k support : coming soon
