Load Balancing over two links

Thanks first of all for indicating the above....

 

 

But we have a problem here the SNAT pool that i have let say for proxy1 private IP to Public IP translation when it happens I have multiple IP's in the pool that this private IP can be mapped to. so If i don't delete proxy translation from what will happen is that the above portion of the irule will translate it to some times ISP1 ip and some times to ISP2 IP. When the translation is to the public IP for that ISP which is marked on high priority in the pool under pga_isp1_pool it will work else it wont.

 

 

Correct me if I am wrong.

 

 

Also I need to understand here some of the things ...

 

 

 

if { [IP::addr [IP::client_addr] equals x.x.x.x] } { << proxy 1

 

pool pga_isp1_pool }

 

elseif { [IP::addr [IP::client_addr] equals x.x.x.x] } { << proxy 2

 

pool pga_isp2_pool }

 

}

 

 

 

Here in place of x.x.x.x i will put the public IP address which the above portion of the iRULE has translate the proxy IP to. M i correct? or it will be the private IP of the proxy

In the above I can understand that pga_isp1_pool or pga_isp2_pool are the pool which i will create, will I keep the ISP routers as the pool members here???

 

 

what is <

 

Regards,

OK, understood, so you'll specifically map a public IP for each proxy somewhere higher up in the rule (or lower down) and exclude the proxies from the general SNAT.

 

 

I'm not sure if you need to use the public or private IP instead of x.x.x.x - you'll have to test to see if the SNAT already applies or not, or, if you can't test easily, do the SNAT after the pool mapping.

 

 

Both ISP routers will be in both pools but you'll configure 'min members 1' and one or the other member with a higher group number than the other. So in pool 1 ISP1 will have a group number of say 10, ISP2 a group number of 1. In pool 2 ISP2 will have a group number of 10, ISP1 a group number of 1.

Well now based on my explanation again we are back to the same point that how the irule will look like and what changes we will make to my existing irule or write a new irule and how will it look like... any help in this... ?

I don't know what your existing iRule looks like in full but based on what I do know I'd do it in this order to avoid having to change the SNAT configuration;

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
 if { [IP::addr [IP::client_addr] equals x.x.x.x] } {
  pool pga_isp1_pool }
 elseif { [IP::addr [IP::client_addr] equals x.x.x.x] } {
  pool pga_isp2_pool }
 if {[class match [IP::client_addr] equals Snat_pool]} {
 snatpool [class match -value [IP::client_addr] equals Snat_pool] }
}
