Cisco Application :: Can Migrate Config From ACE20 To ACE30

Nov 6, 2012I'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.

Cisco Application :: Cookie Insert On ACE20-MOD-K9
Nov 13, 2012We 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]
Cisco Application :: ACE20 Load Balancing
Apr 26, 2011I 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.

Cisco Application :: ACE30 - Using VIP As L3 Gateway
Oct 26, 2011Is it all possible to use an ACE30 to RHI a VIP which acts as route for servers on LAN A to reach LAN B . We have 2xL2 WAN circuits between 2 sites used by only 4 servers for (different L3 subnets for the hosts). I`m considering using a VIP to load balance across 2 WAN circuits using L3 interfaces on the MSFC either side as rservers with a single VLAN in/out on the ACE where the VIP resides - simlair to using the Cisco design for firewall load balancing minus the inspections etc. Obviously we can do this entirely in the MSFC but considering options.

Cisco Application :: Show Active Mac Pool On ACE20?
Oct 26, 2011I 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 RelatedCisco Application :: Monitoring And Allocating Resources On ACE20-MOD-K9
May 16, 2012We 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?
Cisco Application :: 6509E - Standby ACE20-MOD-K9 Reboots On Its Own
Jul 15, 2012I 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.
Cisco Application :: Weak Cipher Blocking In ACE20?
Jan 27, 2012I 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.

Cisco Application :: ACE30 Fail On First Rserver
Jan 27, 2013I have four rservers. I have found that if the first listed server in my serverfarm is off line, the entire farm quits working. How did I come to this conclusion? You see as part of "serverfarm host PORTAL-FARM" rservers "SISPOAS1 through 4". I can shut down any server except SISPOAS1 and all is well. The load balancer sees the probes have failed to that given server and continuses to load balance to the others. However, If I shut down SISPOAS1, nothing works. I confirmed this by eliminating SISPOAS1 from the configuration completely. After doing so, I could reproduce the exact same problem using SISPOAS2 since it is now the first rserver in the list after I removed SISPOAS1. I'm stumped! Looking at the configuration below, what am I missing???

Cisco Application :: ACE20 / Configuring Timeout For IP Address Stickiness
Jan 18, 2012We 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?
