We have a CSS 11000.
The VIP address alias is called chdevapps. We are on the server and trying to make http requests to the VIP address alias from the command line but the connection keeps timing out.
mimi:web_user> telnet chdevapps 80
Trying 134.174.12.12...
GET / HTTP/1.0
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out
However if we run the same request from the hostname of of the server attached to the switch the request is processed immediately. Is there a way we can configure the switch to allow requests like this from the server using the VIP alias???
mimi:web_user> telnet mimi 80
Trying 10.1.111.13...
Connected to mimi.
