Configuring the WSM using Device Manager

Monitoring real servers and services

To configure monitoring of real servers and services by the management network:

1. From the device view, select the Web Switching Module.

The Web Switching Module is highlighted.

2. From the Edit menu, choose WSM Card > L4 Switching > SLB.

The Server Load Balance dialog box opens to the General tab. See SLB--General tab fields.

3. In the Management Network field, enter the source IP address of the management network to allow management traffic direct (non-Layer 4) access to real servers.
4. In the Management Subnet Mask field, enter the IP address of the subnet mask that gives management traffic direct access to real servers.
   
   

   Note: Clients on the management network do not have access to SLB services and cannot access the virtual services being load balanced.
