To load balance to a single IDS group
1. Set up the IDS servers.
To configure the IDS servers as real servers you must consider the setup of the IDS servers and
the selection of the health check. Typically, most IDS servers are set up in stealth mode (without
IP addresses). However, they can also be set up with non-routable IP addresses. For more
information about setting up IDS servers, see
2. Configure the IDS servers as real servers.
The IDS servers are configured in stealth mode. Match the real server number with the physical
port number to which the IDS servers are connected, and configure dummy IP addresses. The
real servers must be numbered between 1 and 63.
>> # /cfg/slb/real 6/rip 6.6.6.6/ena
>> # /cfg/slb/real 7/rip 7.7.7.7/ena
3. Create a group and add the IDS servers. The group must be numbered between 1 and 63.
>> # /cfg/slb/group 50
>>Real Server Group 50# add 6
>>Real Server Group 50# add 7
4. Define the group metric for the IDS server group. IDS SLB supports the hash metric only.
>>Real Server Group 50# metric hash
5. Define the health check for the group. Configure link health check which is specifically developed
for IDS servers set up in stealth mode (without IP addresses).
>>Real Server Group 50# health link
6. Define the group for IDS SLB.
>>Real Server Group 50# ids ena
7. Select the rport for the IDS group.
>>Real Server Group 50# idsrprt any
8. Enable IDS on the client and server ports. This enables frames ingressing the port to be copied
to the IDS servers.
>># /cfg/slb/port 25/ids ena
>>SLB port 25# /cfg/slb/port 26/ids ena
>>SLB port 26# /cfg/slb/port 27/ids ena
