My ACE module rebooted itself and after the reboot it lost all the config and it has been booted with factory default setting.
[code]....
I would like to know the reason for the same. Is this due to firmware bug? or with the Hardware? I am bit dissatisfied that all of my config vanished without any reason after the reboot of ACE.
I have a ACE20 module with a performance of 4 Gbps. I want to upgrade the performance from 4 Gbps to 8 Gbps. Is correct the following SKU for the upgrade?
ACE30-UPG-08-K9=ACE10 or ACE20 to ACE30 Upgrade for 8 Gbps Throughput
And if i want to upgrade the performance to 16Gbps is correct the sku?
ACE30-UPG-16-K9=ACE10 or ACE20 to ACE30 Upgrade for 16 Gbps Throughput
I noticed that the price list of both codes is the same....
Is it right for the SKUs listed I get the new module with the performance ACE30 requested?
I have an ACE20-MOD-K9 with version A2_3_6a, and i am having problems in cookie persistency. the setup contains 4 servers using round-robin algorithm and cookie persistency and that receive http traffic on port 9090. I have been receiving complains that the users are getting disconnected randomly while accessing the web application through ACE. Below is part of the config, when setting the timeout of the cookie to default or something equal to hours, the disconnection/complains gets worse.

We are using an ACE engine module(ACE20-MOD-K9) provide loading balancing service for two WEB servers and configured cookie for stickness. Below is the current configuration and it seems working fine now.
The problem I was facing is before use parameter-map change the http header length to 8k the stickness doesn't really working properly. User complains that their working session constantly be kicked out and redirect them to login page. By tracing traffic from a client we found that sometime ACE fails or stop insert the configured cookie, after increase the header length ACE start getting work.
how does the header length setup effect ACE to insert a cookie? Will the cookie insert attmpt fail if the header is longer then the maximum length configured on ACE? [code]
Have a client with one ACE20 and now he needs a second one for redundancy.Since ACE20 is EOL, can I use an ACE30 with an ACE20 as a failover pair?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with the ACE 20 load balance
To start with following is our architectural request flow:
Load Balancer --> Webseal /(reverse proxy) --> HTTP Server --> Portal Server
We have Hardware Load Balancer Cisco ACE20. When we access our portal from Webseal server it works totally fine without any issue, but when we access the same application using ACE we face the following issues:
1) Some of the links on do not work. For eg: We have a link "subscribe" which points to [URL], whenever we click on this link, the request is directed to [URL] i.e homepage
2) URL redirection does not work We have some links which have a url forwarding or redirection for example when we open [URL] it forwards the requests to [URL] opendocument....., but this redirection fails and again the request is thrown to homepage i.e., [URL]
3) The response of the request and the overall portal when accessed via ACE is very sluggish and it takes 20 seconds for homepage to load, whereas the homepage loads in 4 secs when accessed via webseal.
Below is the ACE details.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI would like to add a vlan to a second context on a pair of redundant ACE modules. As soon as I open up that shared vlan box we will expose ourselves to mac conflicts until the shared-vlan-hostid commands can be implemented and the module reloaded. Adding the commands is not a big deal but I may not be able to schedule a reload until next week. What I would like to do is confirm the mac pools in use by each module right now. My hope is that they grabbed unique pools when they last booted and a conflict will not be a concern now.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe have a pair of ACE20-MOD-K9 in Fault Tolerant mode. They are running multiple contexts and we have a problem with one particular context which is running SSL off-loading. Despite the config being identical on both (accept for the peer addresses obviously) and both having the same SSL Key and Cert files loaded on both, the configuration will not sync between them. [code] All the Crypto files are identical as I copied them from one ACE to the other.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWe are currently running a ACE20 with 11 contexts. Recently we have seen that one of the contexts is being 'starved' of resources, especially Concurrent Connections, Bandwidth and Throughput.
Whilst we know how to address this situation by reallocating resources from less busy contexts, I was wondering if there was a more scientific way of looking at the resources being used and calculating the best way to allocate them across the ACE other than just looking at the 'show resource usage' and 'show resource allocated' commands?
Has Cisco or any other 3rd party developed a handy tool to monitor the the ACE resources which will possibly assist with calculating the optimum resource allocations across all contexts?
I have 2 Cat 6509-E switches in VSS configuration with 2 ACE modules. One in each Cat6k.
The ACE modules are running the following:
Software
loader: Version 12.2[120]
system: Version A2(3.2a) [build 3.0(0)A2(3.2a)]
We have only 2 contexts, the Admin and another one that we redirect traffic to WAAS equipment. The ANM soft running is only used for stats about the ACEs. It is version 5.2.
Since last week, the standby ACE module reboots on it own. It rebooted between 10 and 15 times until we had to leave the module PwrDown due to the constant reboots.
I tried to find any bug in the soft but I could not find anything related to that.
I tried to create a L7 class-map for blocking the clients with ciphes strength less than 128 in ACE20 running with Software version A2(2.3).But there were no command inside the L7 class-map called cipher for matching the cipher strength 128. Command Tried to issue was host1/Admin(config-cmap-http-lb)#match cipher less-than 128 So I want to know whether this is possible on ACE 20 and SW version A2(2.3). Kindly suggest a way to acheive this.
I have seen some other configuration using the parameter-match, But I dont know the Cipher Names which to allow. I want to drop all the connections with less than 128 bits cipher strength.
is there a way to reset/clear a particular context's configuration?
I see there is a 'wri erase' within a context, but no reload/reset - neither from the context itself nor from the Admin... puzzling...
I dont want to reload an entire blade just to clear one of the context's configs.
We are using an ACE20 module running version A2(3.2).I have a question regarding IP stickyness and the timeout parameter.I found this in the "Server load balancing configuration guide" (in a section entitled: "Configuring a Timeout for IP Address Stickiness"):
"The sticky timeout specifies the period of time that the ACE keeps (if possible) the IP address sticky information for a client connection in the sticky table after the latest client connection terminates. The ACE resets the sticky timer for a specific sticky-table entry each time that the module opens a new connection or receives a new HTTP GET on an existing connection that matches that entry."
The parts in bold seem to point to the fact that the timeout is an "inactivity timeout" as the counter is reset on every new connection.The next section in the documentation is entitled: "Enabling an IP Address Sticky Timeout to Override Active Connections" and says:
"By default, the ACE ages out a sticky table entry when the timeout for that entry expires and no active connections matching that entry exist. To specify that the ACE time out IP address sticky table entries even if active connections exist after the sticky timer expires, use the timeout activeconns command."
This seems to contradict the previous statement.So my question is: is the IP stickyness timeout an "inactivity timeout" or not?
I've run into an interesting problem trying to migrate my production config from my redundant ACE20's (A2(3.4)) to the new ACE30's (Tried (A4(1.0) and A5(1.0)). Everything on the ACE30 is working fine with a base config, but when the restore all is run from the ACE20 backup (backup all), the SSL files are not restored and return errors. All the contexts are restored correctly, along with the startup-config, but the running config fails due to no SSL.
All the crypto certs/keys are exportable and are present in the backup .tgz file.
I have a physical server running behind the ACE module ACE20-MOD-K9. The Server has several virtual machines. One of that virtual machines, has a WEB SERVER running virtual https servers. For example, server with IP address 10.0.0.20/24, has serveral virtual HTTPs servers as of urll... So, if you nslookup the servers, they all respond with 10.0.0.20 IP address. So if I do url...goes to 10.0.0.20 and read the VIRTUAL SERVER config and replies back to the request.Now, I am trying to verify that the TCP connection (443) and the HTTPS server itself is up and running but only for the url... site and not for the other 2.The problem that I am facing is tha the HTTPS probe fails randomly. The TCP probe works fine.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have two Cisco SG300-20 switches. Both of them are configured in L3 mode. They have several VLAN's configured.
When I reboot my switches some VLAN membership settings are lost! I have already saved the settings over and over before rebooting, and even tried to save it to the backup memory and so on. Say for example I have changed port 9 to 14 from VLAN 101 to VLAN 105. I save the configuration, reboot the switch. And then the changes are lost. This is a big problem, because servers and my iSCSI network loose connectivity. They already have the latest firmware. This issue was there three firmwares before.
This issue pop-ups when I have a power loss, or I need to reboot/shutdown them manually. It may be off-topic but I also have the feeling that the performance of the switches goes down during uptime. A reboot solves the performance issue. I don't have a performance benchmark, but I can notice it on the performance transfer rate between clients and servers.
I have a Belkin N750DB (F9K1103) that has been working great for many months. All of the sudden, when I reboot it r power cycle it, it loses its configuration. Even if I restore the configuration, it immediately goes away. I have tried unplugging for an extended time and holding the reset button for a full factory reset.
