Configuring SLB Probes

Associating a Probe with a Server

To associate an existing SLB probe with a server use the
entering ip slb server ip followed by IP address of the server, cluster, the user-configured cluster name,
probe, and the user-configured probe name.
For example, to associate a probe called "server_probe1" with a server with an IP address of
10.255.11.127 that belongs to a cluster called "WorldWideWeb", enter:
-> ip slb server ip 10.255.11.127 cluster WorldWideWeb probe server_probe1

Modifying SLB Probes

The following subsections describe how to modify existing SLB probes.

Modifying the Probe Timeout

By default, the timeout used to wait for SLB probe answers is 3000 seconds. To modify this value from 1
to 3600000 seconds use the
user-configured probe name, the probe type, timeout, and the user-specified timeout value.
Note. See "Creating SLB Probes" on page 34-31
For example, to set the timeout for an HTTP SLB probe called "server_probe1" to 12000 seconds, enter:
-> ip slb probe server_probe1 http timeout 12000

Modifying the Probe Period

By default, the SLB probe period to check the health of servers is 60 seconds. To modify this value from 0
to 3600 seconds use the
configured probe name, the probe type, period, and the user-specified period value.
Note. See "Creating SLB Probes" on page 34-31
For example, to set the period for an HTTP SLB probe called "server_probe1" to 120 seconds, enter:
-> ip slb probe server_probe1 http period 120

Modifying the Probe TCP/UDP Port

By default, the TCP/UDP port the SLB probe should be sent on is 0. To modify this value from 0 to 65535
use the ip slb probe port
the probe type, port, and the user-specified port number.
Note. See "Creating SLB Probes" on page 34-31
For example, to set the TCP/UDP port for an HTTP SLB probe called "server_probe1" to 200 enter:
-> ip slb probe server_probe1 http port 200
