CSS for multiple VLANs?

[zhichao]

Hi

Anyone has working setup for one CSS to support multiple server VLANs?

Our CSS need to be shared by different department server farms, so I need to confirm it is feasible.

Thanks

This is no problem for the CSS to have multiple vlans for the servers.

Just to expand on this original question. If I have multiple DMZ's off of a firewall - each with their own server farms that I need to load balance - can the CSS still provide the data separation and handle VIPs in different VLAN's?

[Gilles Dufour]

no. THe CSS will route between the vlans and bypas the firewall.

So there is no way to create multiple layer 3 interfaces on the CSS?

If I had an ACE module in a 6500 would I be able to support multiple server farms on the DMZ?

Thanks.

Yes, because ACE suports virtualization.

You can have completely separated virtual ACE contexts for each DMZ.
