ACE 4710 Connectivity ?

Can the ACE be setup with only one interface configured and not having to place the servers on another interface?

Some of the "lesser" loadbalancers have a "Direct Server Return" mode. Where requests come in one interface and out the same interface to the server. This way you dont have to place servers inline with the LB.

Any way to do this with the ACE?

Yes.

Both ACE module and ACE appliance can be configured in one arm mode.

For One arm mode you will have to configure source NAT to ensure the server responses are routed via ACE.

Direct server return is also possible with ACE.
