One host to one server in the serverfarm

[Bilal Nawaz]

Hello,

Is there any way on the ACE to specify 'forward all requests to the VIP from a single IP to go to server X in the serverfarm'

If so, how would I do this please?

Kind Regards,

Bilal

Hello Bilal,

2 approaches come to mind:

1) you could create a serverfarm with that server only and then use:

policy-map type loadbalance first-match testurl-l7slb

  match SPECIAL-CLIENT source-address 192.168.33.154 255.255.255.255

    serverfarm SPECIAL-FARM

  class class-default

    serverfarm NORMAL-FARM

OR

2) if you are using source ip stickiness then you could create a static entry linking a single client source ip address to a certain server, see here:

Hope it helps,

Francesco

Thank you Francesco, 2nd option appeals more to me.
