Hi all,
I have wrote with Cisco and this is a result :
one FW module per 6509-E at minimum or can we use only one FWSM per VSS ?
-You can have just one FWSM in the Active . You don’t need to have it as mandatory in the Standby as well . But you won’t have redundancy as there would be only single FWSM
Other question
(one FWSM per VSS)
[DC A [nodes R1 and R2] and DC B [nodes R3 and R4] from left to right]
DWDMs link is configured from R1<->R3 and R2<->R4and 2x10 Gb link between R1 <> R2 and R3 <> R4 in each DC
so if FWSM on R1 fails all traffic from DC A will be forwarded to FWSM at DC B on R3 , so during maintenance all traffic for FWSM will be handled by DWDM link.
(2 FWSMs per VSS and cluster of four FWSM)
Server are configured as clusters with primary cluster node at DC A and standby cluster node at DC B
I need configure one FW cluster with ONE IP regarding to server clusters, which are Active at DC A and standby at DC B.
For this reason they need one unique IP address as DG, without 1 IP, server cluster conf is useless
question is :It is desired that both cluster nodes have same DG configured
answer : this is not possible
I hope this helps someone.
