printing on diff vlan thru csm

[rpalacio]

Hello,

the scenario

1. we have 6500 core (using hybrid OS)with csm module

2. it has 2 real servers configured for load balancing

3. stickiness is enabled

FINDINGS.

1. printing is ok if the printer belongs to the same subnet of the real servers

2. iF THE PRINTER IS NOT ON THE SAME SUBNET AS THE REAL SERVERS, PRINTING WILL FAIL.

I am posting the SLB configuration for further info.

Thanks a lot.

Hi,

from your description it's not clear which vserver is used. Could you please clarify it it the vserver ANY or DIRECT-ACESS. From the description given I've the feeling that there is asynchronous routing this is that the way to the server is via the CSM but the way back to the client is not hitting the CSM.

Check if the GW towards the clients is pointing towards the CSM or not.

Regards,

joerg

Hi,

Vserver is ANY which is the 10.51.20.1...Note that we dont have any problem on accessing the applications on the serverfarm thru the csm..

tHE PROBLEM WE ARE FACING IS THE PRINTING PART OF THIS APPLICATIONS (WHICH IS REAL SERVER INITIATED), TO PRINTERS NOT ON THE SAME VLAN AS THE REAL SERVERS.
