HP Traffic Director sa7220 - Manual (Page 221)

C H A P T E R 6 e-Commerce Appliance Scenarios
209
In Dual NIC mode, the SA8220 uses two Ethernet ports. One is
connected to the router or switch on which client requests arrive, and
the other is connected to the server-side subnet. By contrast, Single
NIC mode refers to configurations in which the SA8220
communicates with the router or switch and the servers via a single
Ethernet port. For more information, please see “Routing with Dual
Interfaces” in Chapter 2.
Prerequisites for Scenario 1
• Two web servers are configured with replicated content. In this
example they are referred to as “serv1.acme.com” and
“serv2.acme.com” with IP addresses of 10.6.1.99 and 10.6.1.100,
respectively.
• One SA8220 is installed between two distinct subnets. The
outside subnet is connected to the router, and the inside subnet is
connected to the switch.
• The SA8220 must be physically installed on the network, and its
Boot Monitor and routing protocol configurations must be
complete. For more information, please see the “Getting Started
Guide”.
