Configuring the Content Switching Module

If the Multilayer Switch Function Card (MSFC) is used on the next hop router on either the client or the server side VLAN, then the corresponding Layer 3 VLAN interface must be configured.

Caution The MSFC cannot be used simultaneously as the router for both the client and the server side. Do not configure the Layer 3 VLAN interface for both the client and the server side.

This example shows how to configure the Layer 3 VLAN interface:

Router>

Router> enable

Router# config

Router(config)# interface vlan 130

Router(config-if)#ip address 10.10.1.10 255.255.255.0

Router(config-if)# no shutdown

Router(vlan)# exit

Figure 7 shows an overview of the configuration process. Required and optional operations are shown.

Note Configuring policies is not necessary for basic Layer 4 load balancing.
