VIP and Interface Redundancy

HEATH FREEL
Level 1
Level 1

Yet another question...

I am running two CSS 11501 using VIP and INT Redundancy. One thing I am a little confused about, based on the sample configs and documentation is the following statment.

"Typically, you configure VIP redundancy on the public side of CSS peers that are positioned in front of a server farm. You configure virtual interface redundancy on the private-side interfaces attached to the Layer 2 device in front of the servers"

This sort of makes sense to me. Except if I only configure VIP redundancy on the public side of the CSS how do I route my packets from my firewall to the CSS for servers behind the CSS that are not VIPed - if I do not use Interface redundancy on the public side as well, then I have to route the packets to the physical interface.

I guess the question is - can I use interface redundancy on both the public side and the Server sid of the CSS as well as VIP Redundancy on the Public side??

Thanks,

Heath

Heath,

that's no problem.

You can turn on interface redundancy wherever you want.

The documentation just refers to the most common situation.

Gilles.
