Hi,

We have 6500 switches. We want to achieve server load balancer facility by IOS.

Can this be achieved? If so what are the dependencies interims SUP, IOS version etc...It would be a great help if someone could help me in this.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. If i don't have any CSM module installed on my 6506 switch then also is it possible?

Hi,

Yes, the links provided before are for IOS SLB setup, no CSM is needed.

Hope it helps!!
