In this step, the local Denver site is configured to recognize the services offered at the remote
San Jose site. As before, configure one real server entry on the Denver Alteon for each virtual
server located at each remote site. Since there is only one remote site (San Jose) with only one
virtual server, only one more local real server entry is needed at the Denver site.
The new real server entry is configured with the IP address of the remote virtual server, rather
than the usual IP address of a local physical server. Do not confuse this value with the IP
interface address on the remote Alteon.
The parameter is enabled, and the real server entry is added to the real server group
remote
under the local virtual server for the intended service. Finally, since the real server health checks
are headed across the Internet, the health-checking interval should be increased to 30 or 60
seconds to avoid generating excess traffic. The more remote sites you have, the larger the time
interval should be.
For example:
>> Remote site 1# /cfg/slb/real 1
>> Real server 1# rip 200.200.200.100
>> Real server 1# adv/remote enable
>> Real server 1# inter 30
>> Real server 1# ena
>> Real server 1# /cfg/slb/group 1
>> Real server group 1# add 1
Note: You should note where each configured value originates or this step can result in
improper configuration.
5. On the Denver Alteon, define the domain name and hostname for each service hosted on each
virtual server.
These are the same as for the San Jose Alteon: the domain name is "gslb.example.com," and
the hostname for the HTTP service is "www." Configure these values as follows:
>> Real server group 1# /cfg/slb/virt 1
>> Virtual server 1# dname gslb.example.com
>> Virtual server 1# service 80
>> Virtual server 1 http# hname www
6. Apply and verify the configuration.
>> Global SLB# apply
>> Global SLB# cur
7. Examine the resulting information. If any settings are incorrect, make and apply any appropriate
changes, and then check again.
>> Global SLB# /cfg/slb/cur
8. Save your new configuration changes. Table 62 shows the resulting port usage:
