Configuration example for FWLB-to-SLB
6
DRAFT: BROCADE CONFIDENTIAL
The following commands configure the SLB parameters, four real servers and one VIP. The servers 
are bound to the VIP by the HTTP port. Notice that the servers are configured as remote servers. If 
Proxy ARP is enabled on the internal ServerIron ADXs, you can define the real servers as local 
servers instead of remote servers. However, if Proxy ARP is not enabled on the internal ServerIron 
ADXs, the real servers must be remote servers.
SI-Ext-A(config)# server remote-name web1 10.10.2.40 
SI-Ext-A(config-rs-web1)# port http 
SI-Ext-A(config-rs-web1)# server remote-name web2 10.10.2.41 
SI-Ext-A(config-rs-web2)# port http 
SI-Ext-A(config-rs-web2)# server remote-name web3 10.10.2.42 
SI-Ext-A(config-rs-web3)# port http 
SI-Ext-A(config-rs-web3)# server remote-name web4 10.10.2.43 
SI-Ext-A(config-rs-web4)# port http 
SI-Ext-A(config-rs-web4)# server virtual webby 10.10.1.10 
SI-Ext-A(config-vs-webby)# port http 
SI-Ext-A(config-vs-webby)# bind http web4 http web3 http web2 http web1 http
Enter the following command to enable SLB-to-FWLB.
NOTE
This command applies only to the ServerIrons that contain the SLB configuration. Do not enter this 
command on the internal ServerIrons.
SI-Ext-A(config)# server slb-fw 
SI-Ext-A(config)# write memory
Commands on external ServerIron B (SI-Ext-B)
Here are the commands for configuring SI-Ext-B in Figure 22 on page 146. The SLB configuration 
is identical to the one on SI-Ext-A.
