‎04-03-2011 06:46 AM

I am new to CSS. I have CSS 1150 with IOS 7.3. I want to load balancing two servers 192.168.210.55 and 192.168.210.56 on port 80.

My CSS is connected in single arm configuration. Core switch is dong the Inter VLAN routing and CSS is connected in the VLAN 200 access Port.

Servers and CSS are connected to same Layer 3 switch.

CSS is in VLAN 200  (192.168.200.10)

Servers are in VLAN 210

Below is the configuration of my CSS

Hello,

Your servers on on vlan 210?  Sounds like traffic isn't being sent symetrically back through the CSS.   You can implement what is called source nat, which enables the CSS to forward the traffic with the source IP and mac address of an IP defined in a nat configuration on the CSS.  This will force traffic back through the ACE.

In addition, if you have the CSS in one arm mode, you will require policy based route to catch both client side and server side traffic and set IP next hop to appropriate IP on the CSS (VRRP address).

To configure source nat you can refer to the following:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/docs/app_ntwk_services/data_center_app_services/css11500series/v8.20/configuration/content_lb/guide/SGrp.html

Here is an example of configuring a CSS in one arm mode:

http://www.cisco.com/image/gif/paws/49841/css_asr_config.pdf

And one more thing.. You may want to consider upgrading your WebNS from 7.30 to 8.20x.. 7.30 is EOS.

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, But I have modified my configuration. Now I am load balancing VLAN 200 Servers where the CSS also located in the same VLAN. Attach is the updated configuration.

I can only ping the VIP but not able to telnet on VIP (192.168.200.65 80).

Please let me know what I am missing and also one link is not working.

To configure source nat you can refer to the following:

Since you are sourcing the connections from the client side you need to add the services under the source group as destination services:

For example:

add destination service ENOC_EFAX_1
  add destination service ENOC_EFAX_2

Thanks for the prompt reply, Do I need to bridge my CSS e8 interface in VLAN 200 where the servers are located. Currently port where the CSS is connected is acccess port for VLAN 200.

CSS11501(config)# show circuits

VLAN1         active-ipEnabled  192.168.200.10   e8              Up   

Now how can i load balance my other servers located in Differenet VLANS. The link you sent me is not working. Do i need to create Trunk port etc in order to communicate with multiple VLAN.

Yes.. I assumed that was in there.. You will need to setup either a trunked interface or have two L3 interfaces in each VLAN 200/201.. That will fix the issue.

I tried configuring the trunk port but I am not able to do this. After making the trunk i cant ping or access the CSS though the port on the core switch is showing up . I want to load balance servers located in VLAN 200 and VLAN 3.

The following is the config that I am doing on the core switch as well as on the content switch.

Hi,

I tried different combinnation of configuration but no luck.

Also I have requirement of Server which is communicating on multiple ports (RightFax Server). How can i load balance TCP 80, 443, 15020, 15021 located in the same Server.

I can see the range command but I dont have a range I have multiple ports.

Without seeing your entire configuration of your adjacent router which you are doing some sort of PBR on, the sourcenat configuration will allow flows to symetrically flow through the CSS and I believe we see that in your output of show flows..

To load balance to different tcp services on the CSS you can do one of two things.. You can stand up new VIP addresses (unique IP and port content rules), or you can use the same VIP, just define same IP under multiple content rules, for example:

owner ENOC_EFAX

content EFAX

add service ENOC_EFAX_2

add service ENOC_EFAX_1

vip address 192.168.200.65

protocol tcp

port 80

active

owner ENOC_EFAX

content EFAX

add service ENOC_EFAX_2_443 <-- create corresponding services for these

add service ENOC_EFAX_1_443 <-- create corresponding services for these

vip address 192.168.200.65

protocol tcp

port 443

active

owner ENOC_EFAX

content EFAX

add service ENOC_EFAX_2_15543 <-- create corresponding services for these

add service ENOC_EFAX_1_15543 <-- create corresponding services for these

vip address 192.168.200.65

protocol tcp

port 15543

active

You need to have your Circuit in VLAN 200.  Otherwise the CSS will not arp out and/or respond to arp broadcasts on vlan 200

i tired the following command but i was not able to even ping my gateway.

I remove circuit VLAN1 and created the follwoing config

circuit VLAN200
        
  ip address 192.168.200.10 255.255.255.0

i have tried multiple options but unable to configure trunk with the core switch. I can only load balance servers in VLAN 200 but cant do the same on VLAN 3 and other VLAN.

Please let me know how can I configure trunk so that i can do the load balance on other VLANs.
