Cabling Guidelines
Cabling Guidelines
This section describes the cabling guidelines for your ASLB configuration:
• Check that your connections to the servers are attached to the switch. The servers must be either
directly attached to the switch or within the same bridging domain as the LocalDirector port in the
server VLAN.
• Use two Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair cables to connect two 10/100 or two 1000BASE-X
switch ports to two comparable LocalDirector interfaces.
Caution Connect the LocalDirector directly to the Catalyst 6500 series switch.
See the “Configuring the LocalDirector Interfaces” section on page 54-7 to configure the LocalDirector
interfaces. See the “Configuring ASLB from the CLI” section on page 54-11 to configure the switch.
