Configuring 2 css11503s for multiple service load-balancing

Question

first here's my present config on one of my CSS11503:
!************************** CIRCUIT **************************
circuit VLAN33
ip address 19.10.28.211 255.255.255.0
ip virtual-router 2 priority 110 preempt
ip redundant-vip 2 19.10.28.210
ip critical-service 2 UpstreamRouter
circuit VLAN200
ip address 10.15.15.251 255.255.255.0
ip virtual-router 1 priority 110 preempt
ip redundant-interface 1 10.15.15.1
ip critical-service 1 UpstreamRouter
!************************** SERVICE **************************
service BrowServ-1
ip address 10.15.15.21
redundant-index 1
protocol tcp
port 80
active
service BrowServ-2
ip address 10.15.15.22
redundant-index 2
protocol tcp
port 80
active
service UpstreamRouter
ip address 19.10.28.1
active
!*************************** OWNER ***************************
owner BrowServ_Owner
content BrowServ_Rule
add service BrowServ-1
add service BrowServ-2
vip address 19.10.28.210
redundant-index 1
active
!*************************** GROUP ***************************
group BrowServ_Group
vip address 19.10.28.210
add service BrowServ-1
add service BrowServ-2
redundant-index 1
active
here are my questions:
1) how do I configure an additional vip address? e.g. I'd like to configure a vip - 19.10.28.215 to load-balance http traffic to 10.15.15.25 and 10.15.15.26?
2) I presently have a static route in my core router "ip route 10.15.15.0 255.255.255.0 19.10.28.210". (this enables the load-balanced servers to connect to Oracle servers on the Core network). do I need to configure a new route on my core router when I add the additional vip 19.10.28.215?
relevant references and/or examples will be much appreciated.

Answer 1

1/ configure the following :
service web1
ip address 10.15.15.25
active
service web
ip address 10.15.15.26
active
content WEB
vip address 19.10.28.215
proto tcp
port 80
add service web1
add service web2
active
2/ I would create a redundant-interface and point your static route to this redundant ip address.
you should not use vip address in static route.
VIP address should only be used when you want to reach the vip address not a when you want a direct connection to the real server.
