nat server (serverfarm submode)

To specify NAT to servers in this server farm, use the nat server command in SLB serverfarm configuration submode. To disable server NAT, use the no form of this command.

nat server [source-mac] static

no nat server

Syntax Description

source-mac

(Optional) Specifies that the request is forwarded back to the source MAC address.

static

Enables static NAT.


Defaults

Server NAT is enabled by default.

Command Modes

SLB server farm configuration submode

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to enable server NAT. If server NAT is configured, the server address and port number in load-balanced packets are replaced with an IP address and port number of one of the real servers in the server farm.


Note The nat server command has no effect when predictor forward is configured, because no servers can be configured.


The source-mac value encrypts traffic for the SSL service and is specific to SSL devices. The source-mac value sends the request back to the SSL device for encryption; the CSM load balances to the server through the SSL encryption. This value supports back end encryption.

predictor (serverfarm submode)

To specify the load-balancing algorithm for the server farm, use the predictor command in the SLB serverfarm configuration submode. To remove the load-balancing algorithm, use the no form of this command.

predictor {roundrobin | leastconns | hash url | hash address [source | destination] [ip-netmask] | forward]}

no predictor

Syntax Description

roundrobin

Selects the next servers in the list of real servers.

leastconns

Selects the server with the least number of connections.

hash url

Selects the server using a hash value based on the URL.

hash address

Selects the server using a hash value based on the source and destination IP addresses.

source

(Optional) Selects the server using a hash value based on the source IP address.

destination

(Optional) Selects the server using a hash value based on the destination IP address.

ip-netmask

(Optional) Bits in the IP address to use for the hash. If not specified, 255.255.255.255 is assumed.

forward

(Optional) Tells the CSM to forward traffic in accordance with its internal routing tables.


Defaults

The default algorithm is round robin.

Command Modes

SLB serverfarm configuration submode

Command History

Release
Modification

1.1(1)

This command was introduced.

2.1(1)

Changed the ip-hash to the hash address source keyword and added new keyword types of hash address, hash address destination, hash url, and forward. In addition, the http-redirect command is now hidden.


Usage Guidelines

Use this command to define the load-balancing algorithm used in choosing a real server in the server farm. If you do not specify the predictor command, the default algorithm is roundrobin. Using the no form of this command changes the predictor algorithm to the default algorithm.


Note The nat server command has no effect when predictor forward is configured, because no servers can be configured.


The portion of the URL to hash is based on the expressions configured for the virtual server submode url-hash command.

No real servers are needed. The server farm is actually a route forwarding policy with no real servers associated with it.

Cache servers perform better using URL hash. However, the hash methods do not recognize weight for the real servers. The weight assigned to the real servers is used in the round-robin and least connection predictor methods. To create different weights for real servers, you can list multiple IP addresses of the cache server in the server farm. You can also use the same IP address with a different port number.


Note The only time the sequence of servers starts over at the beginning (with the first server) is when there is a configuration or server state change (either a probe or DFP agent).


When the least connection predictor is configured, a slow-start mechanism is implemented to avoid sending a high rate of new connections to the servers that have just been put in service.

Examples

This example shows how to specify the load-balancing algorithm for the server farm:

Cat6k-2(config-module-csm)# serverfarm PUBLIC
Cat6k-2(config-slb-sfarm)# predictor leastconns

Modification

1.1(1)

This command was introduced.

2.1(1)

Changed the default timeout from 0 to 1440.

4.1(1)

The insert keyword was added.


Usage Guidelines

Specifying a net mask permits sticky connections based on the masked client IP address.

Use the sticky time option to ensure that connections from the same client that match the same SLB policy use the same real server. If you specify a nonzero value, the last real server that was used for a connection from a client is remembered for the sticky-time value after the end of the client's latest connection.

New connections from the client to the virtual server initiated before the sticky time expires and that match SLB policy are balanced to the same real server that was used for the previous connection.

A sticky time of 0 means sticky connections are not tracked.

The cookie insert feature allows the CSM to insert a cookie in the Set-Cookie header in the HTTP response.

Examples

This example shows how to create an IP sticky group:

Cat6k-2(config-module-csm)# sticky 5 netmask 255.255.255.255 timeout 20
Cat6k-2(config-slb-sticky-ip)#

no cookie offset

Syntax Description

offset offset

Specifies the byte offset count. Range is from 0 to 3999.
