Configuring Time-Based Rules
This section explains how to configure time-based rules.
To configure the first time-based rule
Using the base configuration Configuring Basic GSLB, page 713, you can define a new time-based
rule for certain networks, as follows:
1. Disable the default Rule 1, in order to ensure that the time-based rule is processed first.
2. Configure the networks to be added to the GSLB rule.
3. Configure a new rule.
4. Specify a start and end time for this rule to be applied.
5. Specify the GSLB metrics to select a site if a server is not selected at first. Since network metric
is the first metric, make sure to add the configured networks to metric 1.
6. Specify the other preferred GSLB metrics.
To configure the second time-based rule
Using the steps in configure the first time-based rule, page 731, configure another rule with the
following parameters:
>> # /cfg/slb/gslb/rule 1/dis
>> # /cfg/slb/gslb/net 43/sip 43.0.0.0/mask 255.0.0.0/addvirt 1/ena
>> # /cfg/slb/gslb/net 55/sip 55.0.0.0/mask 255.0.0.0/addreal 10/ena
>> # /cfg/slb/gslb/net 56/sip 56.0.0.0/mask 255.0.0.0/addreal 10/ena
>> # /cfg/slb/gslb/rule 2
>> Rule 2# start 7 00/end 18 00/ena
>> Rule 2# ena
(From 7AM until 6PM)
(Enable the rule)
>> # /cfg/slb/gslb/rule 2/metric 1/gmetric network
>> # /cfg/slb/gslb/rule 2/metric 1/addnet 43/addnet 55/addnet 56
>> # /cfg/slb/gslb/rule 2/metric 2/gmetric geographical
>> # /cfg/slb/gslb/rule 2/metric 3/gmetric roundrobin
