Primary and backup servers
2
Example
To configure the real server R2 as the backup of the real server R1.
Virtual ADX(config)#server real-name R1 10.10.10.10
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R1)#port http
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R1)#exit
Virtual ADX(config)#server real-name R2 10.10.10.20
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R2)#backup R1
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R2)#port http
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R2)#exit
Server port backup association
This command is to configure the backup server port for a particular primary server port, in the real
server port mode.
Syntax: [no] port port-name backup server-name port-name
Example
To configure the http port of the real server R2 as the backup of the http port of the real server R1.
Virtual ADX(config)#server real-name R1 10.10.10.10
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R1)#port http
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R1)#exit
Virtual ADX(config)#server real-name R2 10.10.10.20
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R2)#port http
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R2)#port http backup R1 http
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R2)#exit
NOTE
When both server backup and server port backup are configured, the server port backup has the
precedence over the server backup.
Example
Virtual ADX(config)#server real-name R1 10.10.10.10
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R1)#port http
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R1)#exit
Virtual ADX(config)#server real-name R2 10.10.10.20
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R2)#port http
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R2)#exit
Virtual ADX(config)#server real-name R3 10.10.10.30
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R2)#backup R2
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R2)#port http
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R2)#port http backup R1 http
Virtual ADX(config-rs-R2)#exit
The server R3 will be the backup of R2, while the HTTP port on R3 will be the backup of the HTTP
port on R1.
