I'm setting SLB on a SI XL. All of the real and virtual servers are in one VLAN. I'm using 7.05.00T12
However, it seems like the SIXL floods all of the health checking to all VLANs. I can see the all of the arp who-has traffic on all of the VLANs. It seems like the only way to real "bind" a VIP to a VLAN, is to turn on ip forwarding, and add an IP and subnet that encompasses the VIP. However, turning on ip forwarding means that the SI XL uses a slower form of SLB (SLB Fast Path is disabled). Is there any global command that will just keep all of the SLB into one VLAN? Does anyone know what the performance hit of enabling ip forwarding on a SIXL that you want to use SLB? I'm going to SLB'ing LDAP traffic, so sessions per second is pretty important. Tom
