To configure the standby (B) CSM for fault tolerance, perform this task (see Figure 7-1):
Step 5
Router(config-slb-vserver)# virtual
192.158.38.30 tcp www
Creates a virtual IP address.
Step 6
Router(config-module-csm)# inservice
Enables the server.
Step 7
Router(config-module-csm)# vlan 3 server
Creates the server-side VLAN 3 and enters the SLB
VLAN mode.
Step 8
Router(config-slb-vlan-server)# ip addr
192.158.39.10 255.255.255.0
Assigns the CSM IP address on VLAN 3.
Step 9
Router(config-slb-vlan-server)# alias ip
addr 192.158.39.20 255.255.255.0
Assigns the default route for VLAN 3.
Step 10
Router(config-slb-vlan-server) vlan 9
Defines VLAN 9 as a fault-tolerant VLAN.
Step 11
Router(config-module-csm)# ft group
ft-group-number
vlan 9
Creates the content switching active and standby
(A/B) group VLAN 9.
Step 12
Router(config-module-csm)# vlan
Enters the VLAN mode

2
.
Step 14
Router(vlan)# vlan 3
Configures a server-side VLAN 3.
Step 15
Router(vlan)# vlan 9
