3. If the Virtual Matrix Architecture (VMA) feature is enabled, add proxy IP addresses for
all other switch ports (except port9).
VMA is normally enabled on the switch. In addition to enhanced resource management, VMA
eliminates many of the restrictions found in earlier versions of the WebOS. VMA does
require, that when any switch port is configured with a proxy IP address, all ports must be con-
figured with unique proxy IP addresses. If VMA is disabled, only the cli ent p ort needs a proxy
IP address and this step can be skipped.
The following commands can be used for configuring the additional unique proxy IP
addresses:
NOTE – Port 9 does not require a proxy IP address under VMA.
For conceptual information, see “Virtual Matrix Architecture” on page 217 of this manual and
for information on using the commands, see the WebOS Command Reference
(/cfg/slb/adv/matrix) for more information.
4. Apply and save your changes.
NOTE – Remember that you must apply any changes in order for them to take effect, and you
must save them if you wish them to remain in effect after switch reboot. Also, the
/info/slb command is useful for checking the state of Server Load Balancing operations.
