Configuring SLB Probes
Server Load Balancing (SLB) probes allow you to check the health of logical clusters and physical serv-
ers. Supported features include:
• Support for server health monitoring using Ethernet link state detection
• Support for server health monitoring using IPv4 ICMP ping
• Support for server health monitoring using a Content Verification Probe
Creating SLB Probes
To create an SLB probe use the ip slb probe command by entering the command followed by the user-
configured probe name and the probe type, which can be any one of the following listed in the table
below:
For example, to create an HTTP SLB probe called “server_probe1”, enter:
-> ip slb probe server_probe1 http
You can configure up to 20 probes on a switch.
Deleting SLB Probes
To delete an SLB use the no form of the ip slb probe command by entering no ip slb probe followed by
the probe name. For example, to delete an SLB probe called “server_probe1”, enter:
-> no ip slb probe server_probe1
Associating a Probe with a Cluster
To associate an existing SLB probe with a cluster use the ip slb cluster probe command by entering ip
slb cluster followed by the user-configured cluster name, probe, and the user-configured probe name.
For example, to associate a probe called “cluster_probe1” with a cluster called “WorldWideWeb”, enter:
-> ip slb cluster WorldWideWeb probe cluster_probe1
