Can I create multiple traffic class virtual servers using different tcp ports tagging original VIP?

I get many requests for multiple tcp ports. In the Cisco CSM what I was doing was creating a separate vip for each tcp port, but using the same serverpool. I did that as the requested tcp ports were used in one way or another on the real servers.

 

Thanks,

    et. You can absolutely have a VIP per port, using same server pool, on the same virtual address. Else you can configure a wildcard port too for a catch all. Further you could have a wildcard port VIP and an irule which whitelists destination ports for better security.

     

    One consideration is what port the pool members were configured on. You could have a wildcard here and let the VIP, if u have separate VIPs per port, control this. You'd need to disable port translation in that case.

     

    Many options. Hope this points u in the right direction.
