Configuring the Content Switching Module

Configuring Client-Side VLANs

To configure client-side VLANs, perform this task:

Caution You cannot use VLAN 1 as a client-side or server-side VLAN for the CSM.

 

Command

Purpose

Step 1

 

 

Router(config)# ip slb vlan vlanid client

Configure the client-side VLANs and enter the

 

 

client VLAN mode1.

Step 2

 

 

Router(config-slb-vlan-client)# ip

Configure an IP address to the CSM used by probes

 

ip-address netmask

and ARP requests on this particular VLAN2.

Step 3

 

 

Router(config-slb-vlan-client)# gateway

Configure the gateway IP address. Enter this

 

ip-address

command only in the client submode.

 

 

 

1.Enter the exit command to leave a mode or submode. Enter the end command to return to the menu’s top level.

2.The no form of this command restores the defaults.

This example shows how to configure the CSM for client-side VLANs:

Router(config)# ip slb vlan 130 client

Router(config-slb-vlan-client)#ip addr 123.44.50.6 255.255.255.0

Router(config-slb-vlan-client)# gateway 123.44.50.1

Router(config-slb-vlan-client)# exit

Router# show ip slb VLAN

Configuring Server-Side VLANs

To configure server-side VLANs, perform this task:

 

Command

Purpose

Step 1

 

 

Router(config)# ip slb vlan vlanid server

Configure the server-side VLANs and enter the

 

 

server VLAN mode1.

Step 2

Router(config-slb-vlan-server)# route

Configure a static route to reach the real servers

 

ip-address netmask gateway gw-ip-address

in case they are more than one Layer 3 hop away

 

 

from the CSM.

Step 3

 

 

Router(config-slb-vlan-server)# alias

Optionally, you can configure multiple IP

 

ip-address netmask

addresses to the CSM to place the module in a

 

 

different IP network than real servers without

 

 

using a router. Use this command only in the

 

 

server submode.

 

 

 

Step 4

Router(config-slb-vlan-server)# ip ip-address

Configure an IP address for the server VLAN2.

 

netmask

 

Step 5

 

 

Router # show ip slb vlan

Display the client-side and server-side VLAN

 

 

configurations.

 

 

 

1.Enter the exit command to leave a mode or submode. Enter the end command to return to the menu’s top level.

2.The no form of this command restores the defaults.
