ACE 4710 fills up with unexplained 127.0.0.1 SSH sessions

What could be the cause of such SSH management sessions:
ACE/Admin# sh ssh session-info
Session ID Remote Host Active Time
21763 127.0.0.1 :11034 -347:-22: 9
Such 127.0.0.1 originated SSH sessions are constantly filling the maximum amount of SSH management sessions (16), and block out actual remote management!

Hello, Timo Miiluvaara,
What is the software version ?
If it is A3.(2.3) or earier release, and you are using SSL feature also managing the appliance via DM,
you might hit a bug below.

ACE 4710 transparent LB with two Caches and two routers.

Hello,
I have ACE 4710 that load balance two cach flows (bluecoat), i am doing pbr on the routers to send the traffic destined to port 80 to ACE then Cach farm. After that the Cach flow will get the page from the internet via two routers. The return traffic will match another pbr on the routers with source port 80 that will send it to the ACE then CachFlow again .....then to the users.
I am not using ip-spoofing on the CachFlow for now. In the figure attached i created a VIP 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 port 80 on the interface on the ACE facing the routers, but the question is do i have to create another VIP 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 port 80 on the interface on ACE facing the Cach Flow? or just forward the traffic on the default route? What might be the default route since i have to use two routers and i cannot use hsrp?
Kindly I need some assistance
Thank you and regards,
George

Hi George,
In the topology you described, only the service-policy in the interface towards the routers is necessary. For the traffic from the caches, the ACE will just forward to the default gateway.
The only problem is, as you mentioned, that you cannot use HSRP. In that case, you can still configure two default gateways, but there is no way to predict which one the ACE will use at a given time (the way it does to select the one it will use is sending an ARP request to both gateways and using the one that replies first until the ARP entry expires)
If you need to load-balance the traffic between both routers, then yes, you would need to configure a new VIP on the cache side and load-balanced to a transparent serverfarm composed of both routers.
Regards
Daniel

VLAN Tagging on the ACE 4710 Appliance

Hello all,
I have a quick question. How does the ACE 4710 Appliance works with VLAN tagging? I have virtual servers that I am trying to configure behind ACE. The VMs support VLAN tagging. Can I just trunk to link to my core switch and allow the ACE vlans to pass through?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

ACE 4710 support dot1q trunkning.
Configure the interface between 4710 and core switch as a trunk.
Same between your VMS and core switch.

I have a Cisco ace 4710 with vesion Version A4(2.2). i configued simple SIP load balancing first without stickiness. without stikeiness we are having a problem because bye packet at the was not going to the same server all the time that left our port in used even though user hang up the phone. its happen randmly. i have a total 20 licenced ports and its fill out very quickly. so i dicided to use the stickiness with call-ID but still same issue. below is the config

I mean there should be one more statement-

match sip header Call_ID header-value sip:
and that will be called under-
policy-map multi-match GLOBAL_DMZ_POLICY
   class CIN_VOX_SIP_L4_CLASS
    loadbalance vip inservice
    loadbalance policy CIN_VOX_LB_SIP_POLICY
    loadbalance vip icmp-reply
is that missing in your config ?

ACE 4710 SSL server LB with stickiness

I will be replacing 11500 CSS which are not doing SSL termination, just load-balancing SSL sessions terminated on servers with ACE 4710.
On their CSS config, they were doing SSL-sticky. I understand the 4710 doesn't support SSL sticky, but can perform the same function by parsing the HTTP header. Has anyone done this config before and know where/how to parse the header to look for the SSL session# and stick connections to same server?
THANKS!

In Ace 2.x code GPP (Generic protocol parsing) was introduced that enables ACE to look into the Layer 4 payload.Which is how this stickiness id achieved.
details at
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/interfaces_modules/services_modules/ace/v3.00_A2/configuration/slb/guide/sticky.html#wp1133923
I dont think its currently available on ACE appliance yet.

TCP SYNSEEN with load balancing Cisco ACE 4710

I have a Cisco ACE 4710 load balancing the traffic to two proxy servers, the configuration is the same since December 2012, but yesterday it stated to show SYNSEEN in the show conn command, and the hosts cannot browse. I think that means that the three-way-handshake is not complete.
If I bypass the ACE the hosts can browse without problems.
I have tested with another ACE appliance and the same configuration but the behaviour is the same.
I need help as soon as possible,
thanks,
I've attached the Show conn, show conn detail and show run.

Hi Cesar,
Thank you for your answer,
The issue was solved,
We were running an A3 software version, it seems to have a Bug so it doesn't show the NAT commands in the "show run", so when we made the configuration backup we didn't noticed it.
The ACE reloaded because an electrical failure so it losted the NAT config.
We just upgraded to an A4 version and also added a NAT/PAT to enable the communication between the Clients and the Proxy.
Regards,

Add two servers with ACE 4710

Dear All,
We have two servers (sharepoint ) and need to add it in ACE 4710 to works as internal no need WAN , how to add it ?
Thanks a lot in Advance

Hi,
Here's the example:
Let's say you have two servers
rserver host SERVER_01
ip address 192.168.1.11
inservice
rserver host SERVER_02
ip address 192.168.1.12
inservice
rserver host SERVER_03
ip address 192.168.1.13
inservice
You add them in serverfarm
serverfarm host REAL_SERVERS
rserver SERVER_01
    inservice
rserver SERVER_02
    inservice
rserver SERVER_03
    inservice
After that you configure the VIP and condition. Here any means any protocol and port
class-map match-all VIP-30
2 match virtual-address 172.16.51.30 any
YOu define the L7 policy map
policy-map type loadbalance first-match SLB_LOGIC
class class-default
    serverfarm REAL_SERVERS--------->Serverfarm to which traffic would be loadbalanced.
policy-map multi-match CLIENT_VIPS---->L3 policy map.
class VIP-30
    loadbalance vip inservice
    loadbalance policy SLB_LOGIC
    nat dynamic 1 vlan 451----------------->You need to apply the NAT when your client is in same subnet as server so that return traffic comes back to ACE and not to client directly.
interface vlan 251
description Client vlan
ip address 172.16.51.11 255.255.255.0
access-group input ANYONE

Full URL re-direct with ACE 4710

Is there anyway to perform a redirect on the ACE 4710 so that it will redirect a request sent to the domain mydomain.com be redirected to www.mydomain.com, this is so that an installed SSL certificate will match.
Thanks

Thank you for your response, but the redirect would occur before any encyption.. for example today this is what happens
someone goes to
http://www.mydomain.com
and the ACE redirects the connection to
https://www.mydomain.com
What I want is for someone to go to
http://mydomain.com (without the www) and for it to redirect to
http://www.mydomain.com which will inturn redirect to https://www.mydomain.com
or it can just redirect to https://www.mydomain.com
So the encryption will not occur until it is redirected to teh correct websit

CSS v ACE 4710 Performance Comparison

Am trying to verify performance figures for a CSS 11503 EOL replacement using ACE 4710
Trying to comapre apples with apples (is a CSS SSL TPS the same as a ACE 4710 TPS etc...)
Pulling figures from data sheets, release notes etc I have only come up with the following
Is there any further figures available for the ACE 4710 to fill in the blanks in table?
Am sure that ACE 4710 smokes the CSS but have to do the due diligence

Need help to Configure Cisco ACE 4710 Cluster Deployment

Dear Experts,
I'm newbie for Cisco ACE 4710, and still I'm in learning stage. Meanwhile I got chance at my work place to deploy a Cisco ACE 4710 cluster which should load balance the traffic between two Application Servers based on HTTP and HTTPS traffic. So I was looking for good deployment guide in Cisco SBA knowledge base then finall found this guide.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/solutions/SBA/February2013/Cisco_SBA_DC_AdvancedServer-LoadBalancingDeploymentGuide-Feb2013.pdf
This guide totally fine with my required deployment model. I have same deployment environment as this guide contains with ACE cluster that connects to two Cisco 3750X (Stack) switches. But I have some confusion places in this guide
This guide follow the "One-armed mode" as a deployment method. But when I go through it further I have noticed that they have configured server VLAN as a 10.4.49.0/24 (all servers reside in it) and Client side VIP also in same VLAN which is 10.4.49.100/24 (even NAT pool also).
My confusion is, as I have learned about Cisco ACE 4710 one-armed mode deployment method, it should has two VLAN segments, one for Client side which client request come and hit the VIP and then second one for Server side. which means besically two VLANs. So please be kind enough to go through above document then tell me where is wrong, what shoud I need to do for the best. Please this is an urgent, so need your help quickly.
Thanks....!

Dear Kanwal,
I need quick help for you. Following are the Application LB requirements which I received from my clinet side.
Following detail required for configuring Oracle EBS Apps tier on HA:
LBR IP and Name required to configure EBS APPS Tier (i.e, ap1ebs & ap2ebs nodes)
Suggested IP and Name for LBR:
IP : 172.25.45.x [should be on same 172.25.45 subnet of ap1ebs & ap2ebs nodes]
ebiz.xxxx.lk [on port 80 for http protocol accessibility]
This LBR IP & name must be resolve and respond on DNS network
Server Farm detail for LBR Setup
Following detail will be use for configuring the LBR:
LBR IP and Name :
IP : 172.25.45.x [should be on same 172.25.45 subnet of ap1ebs & ap2ebs nodes]
ebiz.xxxx.lk [on port 80 for http protocol accessibility]
This LBR IP & name must be resolve and respond on DNS network
Server Farm Detail for LBR setup:
Server 1 (EBS App1 Node, ap1ebs):
IP : 172.25.45.19
Server Name: ap1ebs.xxxx.lk [ap1ebs hostname is an example, actual hostname will be use]
Protocol: http
Port: 8000
Server 2 (EBS App2 Node, ap2ebs):
IP : 172.25.45.20
Server Name: ap2ebs.xxxx.lk [ap2ebs hostname is an example, actual hostname will be use]
Protocol: http
Port: 8000
Since my client needs to access URL ebiz.xxxx.lk which should be resolved by IP 172.25.45.21 (virtual IP) via http (80) before they deploy the app on the two servers I just ran web service on both servers (Linux) and was trying to access http://172.25.45.21 it was working fine and gave me index.html page. Now after my client has deployed the application then when he tries to access the page http://172.25.45.21 he cannot see his main login page. But still my testing web servers are there on both servers when I type http://172.25.45.21 it will get index.html page, but not my client web login page. What can I do for this ?
Following are my latest config :

Cannot Telnet to ACE 4710 after upgrade to A4(2.3)

I have a pair of ACE 4710s with 12 contexts sharing the load, running A4(2.1). Yesterday I upgraded one of them to A4(2.3)
now I cannot telnet to the Admin context.Pings ok. I can telnet to other contexts on the box and everything seems to be working ok
when i do a " sh telnet"
comes back with
No Session Information is available
sh telnet maxsessions
telnet maxsessions 16
Can anybody help?

further this post, it was not a resource problem as had allocated 5% for the Admin context.
I up graded IOS Saturday evening, could not Telnet in, tried again on Sunday same result,
though this morning (Monday) Can now telnet in ok very strange
I was connecting via the AUX line of a 2851 router to the console port.
whe I disconnected this morning I saw the following message
INIT: id "T0" respawning too fast : disabled for 5 minutes
not sure if this is a 2851 message or an ACE message, but after getting that message is when I was able to Telnet in
was it a coincidence
anybody any ideas

ACE 4710: Possible to allow a user to clear counters but nothing else?

Hello all,
Using an ACE 4710 we have a user setup with the Network-Monitor role which allows the user to view config, interface status, etc. We would also like to allow this user to clear the interface error counters as well, but nothing else. Is this possible?
Thanks!

Hello Brandon-
Network-Monitor only lets you browse outputs, it is a not a role that allows a user to make any changes including clearing stats. You can create custom roles and domains to get closer to what you want, but you cannot zero in on a single command like that.
i.e.
ACE# conif t
ACE(config)# role MyRole
ACE(config-role)# rule 1 permit modify feature ?
AAA             AAA related commands
access-list     ACL related commands
connection      TCP/UDP related commands
fault-tolerant Fault tolerance related commands
inspect         Appln inspection related commands
interface       Interface related commands
loadbalance     Loadbalancing policy and class commands
pki             PKI related commands
probe           Health probe related commands
rserver         Real server related commands
serverfarm      Serverfarm related commands
ssl             SSL related commands
sticky          Sticky related commands
vip             Virtual server related commands
You can create a permit or deny rule, within that, create/debug/modify/monitor each feature seperately.
Domains allow you to create containers for objects. You can place specific rservers, serverfarms, etc. into it - then apply it to a role so that the user assigned to it can only touch those objects.

Chris Higgins

ACE 4710 - show stats connection questions

Hi,
I have three questions regarding the "show stats connection" command in the ACE 4710:
1. What is the criteria for a connection to be added to the "Total Connections Failed" counter?
2. What is the criteria for a connection to be added to the "Total Connections Timed-out" counter?
3. Is there a command to get more information why the connection was failed or timed-out (e.g. to/from which IP, url accessed etc.)?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Best regards,
Harry

Harry,
a connection failed if the server did not respond or resonded with a RST.
As long as the connection gets establised, it is counted as a success.
The connection timeout counter is incremented when the connection is idle for the configured timeout value or for L7 connections if it does not complete the 3-way handshale within the embryonic timeout interval.
Since this is clear why those counters are incrementing, the only way to get more information is to capture a sniffer trace to verify if the conditions above are met.
Gilles.

ACE 4710 and mangled HTTP requests

After replacing a Cisco CSS/SSL Accelorator and PIX firewall with an ACE 4710 to do load balancing and SSL encryption behind an ASA firewall we started seeing mangled HTTP requests in the Apache access logs for the servers in the server farm. Here is one example:
XX.XX.XXX.XXX - - [21/Oct/2012:01:42:12 -0500] "heckoutFlag=true&verifyPassword=false&newsletter=false&emailaddress=&email2=&pass1=&pass2=&username=POST /register/LServlet HTTP/1.1" 501 3322 "https://www.ourwebsite.com/register/CServlet" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/5.0)"
Rather than appearing just after the timestamp, the "POST /register/LServlet" is tacked on to header information that shouldn't even appear in the log. Also the first letter in that header information is always missing (heckoutFlag instead of checkoutFlag in this example).
The mangled request always shows up as a 501 HTTP error and shows up late in the Apache access logs (timestamp is out of chronogical order) and always appears with several duplicate POSTs:
XX.XX.XXX.XXX - - [21/Oct/2012:01:42:23 -0500] "POST /register/LServlet HTTP/1.1" 200 8537 "https://www.ourwebsite/register/CServlet" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/5.0)"
XX.XX.XXX.XXX - - [21/Oct/2012:01:44:12 -0500] "POST /register/LServlet HTTP/1.1" 200 8537 "https://www.ourwebsite/register/CServlet" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/5.0)"
XX.XX.XX.XXX - - [21/Oct/2012:01:42:12 -0500] "heckoutFlag=true&verifyPassword=false&newsletter=false&emailaddress=&email2=&pass1=&pass2=&username=POST /register/LServlet HTTP/1.1" 501 3322 "https://www.ourwebsite.com/register/CServlet" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/5.0)"
XX.XX.XXX.XXX - - [21/Oct/2012:01:44:12 -0500] "POST /register/LServlet HTTP/1.1" 200 8537 "https://www.ourwebsite/register/CServlet" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/5.0)"
This is occurring for several different URLs and not just the one above and for multiple web browsers.
The ACE load balances to servers running Tomcat 7 with Apache HTTP server v. 2.2.14.
A recent ACE software upgrade to A5(2.1) has not fixed the problem.
Has anyone seen this before?
Thanks for any insight you can provide.

Hi Kari,
Do you have a sample of the configuration which you got with the CSS?
What is the current configuration which you got on the ACE?
Can you shows this output: # show stats http?

Error(s) while applying config.
I am attaching the running configuration of both the ACE's . Kindly help me in resolving the issue .
Also I noticed one thing . There is configuration difference in Primary and Secondary ACE . I guess this is causing the issue .
Need help to fix this asap .
Following configuration is missing on the secondary ACE .
======================================================================
class-map match-all WEB_FARM_VIP-80
3 match virtual-address 10.40.3.15 tcp eq www

Thanks ,

Dear all,
