I'm looking for a way to configure Cisco ACE4710 loadbalancer to bypass traffic that is initiated from server side to Internet?Are there any way to configure this, so that the loadbalancer will not maintain session for this bypass traffic to maximize throughput?

I have a requirement to bypass some specific traffic (with particular source to specific internet destination) in ACE 4710.
All the webtraffic (http and https) is configured to loadbalance to my proxies , i need to configure some specific traffic with source and destiantion to internet to byepass from this loadbalancing and directly got to outside interface .
I'm setting up an ACE 4710 in our test lab before deploying in production. Do the test web servers I am using need to use the ACE as their default gateway? The are currently configured to use a multilayer switch on their vlan as their gateway but I'm guessing the ACE needs to see the return traffic for load balancing to work correctly?

I think this would be an http re-write request/response scenario?Is this possible to configure this on the ACE Device? We've got the load balance configuration down...not sure how to do this re-write type scenario?

View 0 Replies View Relatedi have a 4710 appliance (one armed) and i am load balancing with two webservers. In the URL, there are links that need to be redirected to https:
[URL]
i am using the
rserver redirect REDIRECT-TO-HTTPS[URL]
The https is working but i have a problem. when i access the Main link "first" it is redirected to https to the Main link.But if i access one of the Sublinks directly(without having to click on the main link first) the page is redirected to https but to the Main Link. i have to click the Sublink again in order to get the page.How can i redirect to https and stay on the same page? What might be the general link in the webserver-redirection?
We have deployed an ACE 4710 and its working perfectly. But the problem is that after I chage the default gateway of the servers I am not able to transfer files from one server to other. Is there any special configuration needs to be done on ACE to achieve this?Other than copy Ping, telnet and everything is working fine from the servers. These servers are in the same subnet & VLAN.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe have two ACE4710 in a failover configuration with Software version A4(2.0). SNMP is setup and the receiver is able to receive SNMP traps.The issue is we are receiving a linkDown trap notification at least once every other day, followed shortly by a linkUp notification a minute later. We have checked all layer 2 devices connected to the ACE and cannot see any evidence that any link actually disconnected. We experienced no traffic lost, but this could be because a couple of the ACE links are bundled. The trap notification does not actually indicate which interface changed status. All links are Gigabits, and there are no packet drops either on the ACE or the layer 2 switch.

At present I only use an smtp probe, so as log as that sevrice is running the server is marked good.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Cisco ACE 4710 A5(1.2). Scenario: Inbound call from PSTN to SIP Phone. Call comes into the VIP and then load balances to sip server, the server then routes the call out via WAN to the SIP phone as below:
PSTN SIP Providor >(router)> ACE4710 > sip_server(s) > ACE4710 > (router) >SIP Phone
Note: Router is Cisco 3925 with "ip nat service sip udp port 5060" and Port 5060 mapped to the VIP of the ACE.If I put the sip server directly behind the router it works fine. From behind the ACE:
If I turn on sip inspect on the VIP the call setup (INVITE) and termination (BYE) work fine but the audio loops on the PSTN side from the mic to the speaker.If I turn OFF sip inspect then the audio is fine and mapped correctly but the call terminaton (SIP BYE) hits the VIP from the PSTN but never reaches the sip server.For ease and dianostics, I have turned off all sip servers except one meaning the load-balancer has only one server to choose from.SIP Call_id sticky is setup and seems to work, though irrelevent with one server only on test.How do I get the ACE to accept 'server initiated traffic' with sip inspect so it knows about the pending BYE when it comes back from the IP phone via the VIP?Config below, image attached. Bridged mode (also get the same result in routed mode)

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for some documentation I can share with a customer to explain why I can't configure them a back-up sticky server farm when we're not terminating SSL on the the ACE (we pass SSL from the client through to the rservers, sticking the client to the rserver by source IP address). I've not been able to find anything that addresses this particular scenario in my googling so far. I remember discussing this in my training class with the instructor, but I can't find any reference to it. Have any of you run into this and have a link they can share?

The troubleshooting wiki said check the physical connectivity, but everything there looks good. Each ACE can ping it's own IP, but not the router on that VLAN, or the peer. They're connected to a dedicated VLAN in a switch, and I even tried a crossover cable to directly connect the two. [code]
Do you know if it is possible in ACE 4710 appliance to configure a SIP TLS ?The SIP probe we have in the configuration guide it is only for clear text. for Lync 2013 we need to establish first a TLS session and then within it, send an SIP request..IS it possible in any version? I tried also to configure a HTTPS probe but it fails as it sends a GET which the Lync SIP server doesn't understand.

We have put one web server out of service in the farm to make sure that this isn't a result of stickyness not quite working.

I’m looking for some notes from the field guidance here from those that have much more deployment experience.
I have a GSS and an ACE, and its the ACE that's primarily giving me something to think about, in terms of placement and what mode to adopt.
The traffic flow will look loosely like this:-
Client---Internet---Firewall---GSS---ACE---Servers
Physically, it's like this. The RED line denotes a boundary, and pretty much anything North of that is not accessible to us, we simply have a L3 trunk between our switches and "their" switches (S3/S4) and talk using EIGRP.
There are other servers in the top tier, some that also require load balancing, some that don’t. Typically, I want to load balance HTTPS requests from the internet, to one of the 3 servers in the top half.
I’m not sure what mode to select, routed, one arm? What about placement of the ACE? At the moment, I’ve just configured 1/1 on it and made it part of the MG MT VLAN, it's S VI exists on the S1/S2 switches, so I’m open to change as it's still all in the lab.

One of our sites we connect to needs to see the connection coming from our public IP address, not the proxy server IP. I've created a acl in squid for direct lookup, but the website gets angry with the X-Forwarder-Header squid attaches to each packet.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an issue with a customer that wants to update a server behind the ACE. The problem is that when the application wants to update the server it does it with the name.Doing some research I found that you can rewrite the record DNS based on the static NAT you set up on the ACE. The feature is called DNS inspection. Is the same feature as the ASA (DNS doctoring).I apply it to the outside interface and it did not work.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to configure sticky on an ACE 4710 and don't understand what the netmask part of the sticky ip-netmask netmask address {source | destination | both } name command.
Some examples use 255.255.255.255 and others use 255.255.255.0 but I don't know what the significance is or what it does?
I am going to configure for both source IP and destination IP (both).
With the current (A5) ACE 4710 lic setup, does the "X gigabit per second appliance throughput" that is licensed affect: -
A) Only "appliance" i.e. load balancing traffic, any other normal routed traffic is not included in the limit
or
B) Is it an overall throughput limit on the interfaces i.e. includes all traffic not only load balancing traffic but also normal routed traffic crossing the appliance
Looking at a scenario where the lic size I need for HTTP load balanacing would be one size if A) but would need to be much larger is B) to accomodate out of hours routed backup traffic crossing the ACE 4710
