Configuring transparent cache switching

To assign Cache Server 1 and Cache Server 2 to the same cache group (as in Figure 9 on page 34),

create the server group and assign the servers to the group, as shown in the following.

For IPv4

ServerIronADX(config)#server cache-group 1

ServerIronADX(config-tc-1)#cache-name server1

ServerIronADX(config-tc-1)#cache-name server2

For IPv6

ServerIronADX(config)#server cache-group 2 ipv6

ServerIronADX(config-tc-2)#cache-name server3

ServerIronADX(config-tc-2)#cache-name server4

Syntax: server cache-group number [ ipv6 ]

The number variable specifies an integer that identifies cache group you are creating. Up to 14

server cache groups can be assigned to a ServerIron ADX.

The ipv6 parameter specifies that the cache group being created is for IPv6 servers.

NOTE

If IPv6 TCS is enabled, please enable the optimized mode for IPv6 (using the ipv6 optimized-mode

enable command), save the configuration (using the write memory command), and reload the

ServerIron ADX.

NOTE

You can gain additional reliability by using redundant ServerIron ADX devices, thus eliminating any

single point of failure in the network path to the web cache server group.

NOTE

While TCS can be configured to support IPv4 and IPv6 cache servers, you must define IPv4 cache

servers and IPv6 cache servers in separate cache groups.
