Cisco CSS 11501 Capacity Planning

[richard.foster]

We have a pair of CSS 11501 units which currently have one VIP in front of two servers. Hence they are not being utilised at all.

I've been asked about putting some additional services on these but have no idea what sort of capacity they could take, i.e. max servers, max VIPs, max users/connections.

I've looked around but cannot find any documentation that helps. The following: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/contnetw/ps5719/ps792/product_data_sheet0900aecd800f851e.html document states it has a '6Gbps Bandwidth Aggregate', which is strange as it doesn't even have that physical capacity?

Any help appreciated.

No limit for vip and server (except you need to keep your conig under 10k lines)

Number of concurrent connections is 200k per module and there is only 1 module in the 11501
