Simple Load Balancing Config not working

[HEATH FREEL]

I have a very simple set up that I have done before, but this one isn't working.

Virtual 10.1.1.1:80

Real 10.1.1.2:80

Real 10.1.1.3:80

Bind 10.1.1.1:80 10.1.1.2:80

Bind 10.1.1.1:80 10.1.1.3:80

I can connect to each server separately but when I use the Virtual IP I keep getting the same server - 10.1.1.2:80

When I do a show real - connections for both servers sit at 0.

Any Ideas??

HI there,

I'd create a layer three rule with syntax something like:

content L3rule1

y

add service state1

add service state2

balance leastconn

protocol tcp

no persistent

port 80

vip address 172.24.188.20

this would force leastconnection load balancing,

and hopefully resolve the problem,

cheers,

Hamish

do a show service - this gives good pointers on where there are problems
