Hi Guys,
I have a question that I simply cannot find an answer to on the Cisco site
in regards to the CSM in Bridge mode.
Is it possible to have the vserver (VIP) IP in a differnt subnet range than
the real IP addresses in the serverfarm that is bound to it?

In other words, as an example a typical bridge configuration is like this:



vlan 221 client
 ip address 10.20.220.2 255.255.255.0
 gateway 10.20.220.1
!
vlan 220 server
 ip address 10.20.220.2 255.255.255.0
<<<<<<<<<<<<Two VLANs with the same IP address are bridged
together>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
serverfarm WEBFARM
 nat server
 no nat client
 real 10.20.220.10
  inservice
 real 10.20.220.20
  inservice
!
vserver WEB
 virtual 10.20.220.100 tcp www
 serverfarm WEBFARM
 persistent rebalance
 inservice



Is it possible to do something like this:

vlan 221 client
 ip address 10.20.220.2 255.255.255.0
 gateway 10.20.220.1
!
vlan 220 server
 ip address 10.20.220.2 255.255.255.0
 <<<<<<<<<<<<Two VLANs with the same IP address are bridged
together>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

serverfarm WEBFARM
 nat server
 no nat client
 real 10.20.220.10
  inservice
 real 10.20.220.20
  inservice
!
vserver WEB
 virtual 50.40.220.99 tcp www   <<<<<<<<<<  Place the IP address in a
different subnet than the IP's in the serverfarm >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
 serverfarm WEBFARM
 persistent rebalance
 inservice


<<<<<<<<On the MSFC place a static route to route the 50.40.220.99 address
towards the CSM IP on vlan 221>>>>>>>>>.

ip route 50.40.220.99 255.255.255.255 10.20.220.2


Please if somebody knows if this is or is not possible it would be highly
appreciated to hear your feedback.


Regards,

Brad
