Configuring a sticky group involves configuring the attributes of that group and associating it with a

This example shows how to configure a sticky group and associate it with a policy:
Router(config-module-csm)# sticky 1 cookie foo timeout 100
Router(config-module-csm)# serverfarm pl_stick
Router(config-slb-sfarm)# real 10.8.0.18
Router(config-slb-real)# inservice
Router(config-slb-sfarm)# real 10.8.0.19
Router(config-slb-real)# inservice
Router(config-slb-real)# exit
Router(config-slb-sfarm)# exit
Router(config-module-csm)# policy
policy_sticky_ck
Router(config-slb-policy)# serverfarm
pl_stick
