LRT224 Load Balancing

Hi there just wondering can the LRT224 handle load balancing a 130/7 and 107/30 connection. Thanks

Hi @Spencer1990,
I agree with Chadster. It should be able to. According to the Specifications of the LRT224 router, IPsec VPN throughput (110 Mbps), Maximum NAT throughput (900 Mbps), Maximum concurrent connections (30,000).
I got it from this link: http://www.linksys.com/en-apac/business/products/routers/lrt224
Thank you.

LRT224 Load Balancing with only one ISP

I found that the LRT224 Load Balancing really increased performance on my network with a single Internet Service Provider.
Also if your ISP doesn't limit the number of Public IP Addresses your ISP Device can provide to one. You can get two Public IP Address for additional port forwarding and other uses.

In my case I noticed an immediate improvement in overall performance. When I do a "speedtest.net" test the speeds are always at the maximum throughput even with other heavy users on the internet. Which wasn't the case before. I suspect that the Dual WAN connections are doubling the amount of available full speed connections due to the load balancing.
It's interesting to watch the ethernet port lights on the ISP Modem blinking like mad as the LRT224 pumps data through the two ethernet ports.

LRT224 Load Balancing and Link Failover

Hi, I am new to this forum. I have recently set up the LRT224 with two different ISP's. I am having problems configuring the Load Balance and Link Failover.
When I have Load Balance selected only one ISP (WAN 1) is active, the other (WAN2, ISP modem) remains inactive. Why is Load Balance only engaging one ISP?
When I have Link Failover selected, even with attempts and seconds configured to one second, and WAN1 has packets lost, it doesn't switch over to WAN2.
I am not tech savey but any help will be greatly appreciated so that I can get both ISP's active with Load Balance or at least have Link Failover work almost instantly. Thanks.

Hi @BSue2015,
If both WAN1 and WAN2 are already getting IP Addresses from your ISPs then we can say that Load Balance is working. To check it further, do a speed test by going to http://www.speedtest.net. Dual WAN connections are doubling the amount of available full speed connections due to the load balancing. The speed should have its maximum throughput even if you have several users on the network.

LRT224 Load Balancing Servers

I get the process of load balancing outbound traffic, and even protocol binding so that servers send out traffic only on a specific WAN port. What I do not get is how to load balance INBOUND traffic also to those servers and ensure that the servers response goes out on the interface that it originated.
I have two 50mb internet connections from different ISPs. Each with a static IP address.
The web server is on a private IP address with appropriate forwarding.
The web server IP address is bound to WAN2 which is the DNS address of the web server.
All works perfect. Outboud traffic from the web server exits from the appropriate WAN port while residual traffic is load balanced.
Now, I want to add an A record to the DNS for the web server so that INBOUND traffic ot he web server is balanced and providing a redundant service. However, the protocol binding should not allow any outbound connection through WAN1. Right?
So my question is, is this setup impossible? Do we forget the protocol binding and hope that the outbound responses from the server exits through the originating port? Is there another method? Or, do I need a more advanced router?
I do not even want to consider DMZ even as this is impossible since I am utilizing both ports as WAN ports. Anyone have any suggestions to do this?
Thanks
Mark

Sorry I misunderstood.
IMO for this to work on an LRT224 you would need:
A second network adapter in the Server and the Server configured to answer requests on both NIC's
Protocol Binding the second Server NIC to the other WAN port
A DNS Hosting Service that support DNS Round Robin or you would run your own DNS Server with Round Robin DNS capabilities
These days I'm seeing DNS propagation with namesecure only taking a few hours instead of the advertised 96hrs.

LRT224 load balancing, switching between circuits "resets" secure sites

We have noticed a problem with certian secure websites when load balancing is enabled on the LRT224. The company has a DSL and cable circuit, static I/P's on both. Running Speedtest shows a 30m pipe with load balancing enabled, about 16m on each when off. When utilizing load balancing, if accessing banking, government or otherwise more secure sites, those pages will reset to the login consistently. If turning off load balancing and picking either circuit, this does not occur. We have 2 identical LRT224's and the both do it. I have contacted Linksys customer support to no avail. Firmware is up to date. This is entirely replicateable on both units and very consistent. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Chris

chadster766,
i have updated the firmware as directed and the result is the same. as i indicated, it's easily reproduced by just switching the router to a single circuit (fail over mode) and those sites do not reset. i have 2 exact units and they both perform the same. for a quick fix, i just turn off load balancing, perform the banking functions and then return it to load balancing. not hard just doesn't seem this revision addresses the problem but thank you for the assistance to date.Did you enable Sticky Load Balancing?Use the below link to make sure the feature is functioning properly.

LRT224 Load Balance "dumb" DHCP router setup... HELP!

Hi
I'm trying to set up a LRT224 with two ADSL modems connected to one network with load balancing.
I'm not going to use vlan or vpn at all.
All I need it to do is be a "dumb" router that combines the speed of both Internet connections.
Working mode is set to Router
LAN 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 (I changed the LAN ip range)
WAN 1 and 2 gets IP, default gateway and DNS trough DHCP from the modems.
Wan 1: IP 192.168.1.65 Gateway 192.168.1.1 DNS 192.168.1.1
Wan 2: IP 192.168.2.38 Gateway 192.168.2.1 DNS 192.168.2.1
DHCP setup:
Device IP: 192.168.0.1
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
DHCP Server
Range 192.168.0.50/254
DNS: Use DNS from ISP
Dual Wan:
Load Balance
I'm no IT expert at but I have set up a few routers before that was close to "plug and play"
My problem is that connected computers indicate that they are connected to Internet, but I'm not able to access any websites.
When trying to use windows troubleshooter it indicates that there is a DNS problem.
I'm not even able to connect to the modems.
Installed latest firmware and done a fabric restore.
Network is built as follows (still working as I'm not running anything trough the lrt224 before I can get it to work)
ADSL Modem with built in DHCP and Switch --> Switch --> Ubiquiti Unifi AP --> User
Some of the AP's is connected via Ubiquiti NanoStation (wireless bridge between 4 houses, works great)
Any idea how to get this to work or do I have the wrong router?

I recommend:
Modem1 (192.168.1.1)=> LRT WAN1 (192.168.1.254)
Modem2 (10.10.10.1) => LRT WAN2 (10.10.10.254)
LRT WAN1 SN (255.255.255.0)
LRT WAN2 SN (255.255.255.0)
LRT WAN1 GW (192.168.1.1)
LRT WAN2 GW (10.10.10.1)
LRT WAN1 DNS (192.168.1.1)
LRT WAN2 DNS (10.10.10.1)
System Management => Load Balance
LRT DHCP Device IP (192.168.200.1)
LRT LAN => Switch => Ubiquiti Unifi AP => User
Nothing other than the LRT's connected to the modems.
If the modems DHCP is set to 192.168.1.x and 10.10.10.x subnet 255.255.255.0 then DHCP setting will work on the LRT WANs.

Need help with load balancing and DNS proxy

Hi,
I need help on how to configure my router so it will work with my DNS proxy and load balancing.
I have a Linksys LRT224 router. I have two broadband connections from two separate ISPs,500Mbps each (WAN1 & WAN2). WAN1 has a static IP and WAN2 is dynamic assigned. I use Unlocator (www.unlocator.com) so I can access geographically restricted sites (Pandora, Netflix, etc.).
The problem I have is that unlocator registers only one IP address (WAN1 address) and since I am doing load balancing I have no way of knowing if the DNS request will go through the registered IP (WAN1) or through the other (WAN2). I am not an expert in routing or networking but I'm guessing I have a way of configuring the router so all the DNS requests go out through WAN1, right?
In the router's Dual WAN config page there is a section for Protocol Binding. I tried to configure but only managed to screw up the internet at home. I used:
DNS[UDP/53-53]->192.168.1.1-192.168.1.254(0.0.0.0-0.0.0.0)WAN2
Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

Good solution though. That's probably the only way you could do true Load Balancing anyway.

Error while selecting Load Balancing in JCO creation

While creating JCO i am facing this error.It is working fine with Single server connection,but when i chose Load balancing i error comes out.Please tell me the solution.
I have read couples of forum mentioned you need to start both Portal and ECC.
For you information my Portal and Java are both on diffrrent Box.
com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Exception: (102) RFC_ERROR_COMMUNICATION: Connect to message server host failed Connect_PM TYPE=B MSHOST=olameccpdvr GROUP=PUBLIC R3NAME=DVR MSSERV=sapmsDVR PCS=1 LOCATION CPIC (TCP/IP) on local host with Unicode ERROR service 'sapmsDVR' unknown TIME Thu Feb 24 12:19:54 201 RELEASE 701 COMPONENT NI (network interface) VERSION 38 RC -3 MODULE nixxhsl.cpp LINE 776 DETAIL NiHsLGetServNo: service name cached as unknown COUNTER 5

Is your backend system configured correctly in your SLD ?
Go to transaction SMMS on your backend system that your are connecting to. Click on Goto=>Parameters=>Display. Look for "server port" value.
This should give you the TCP/IP port for your message server. It could be 3600 or 3601 (36NN - where NN is the instance number).
In your services file, if you made the entry at the end of the file, press Enter (Return) after your entry.
Try restarting your server after making the above changes.

Error in creation of JCO with Load balancing server

Hi,
We are using a ABAP user base for our WEBAS server 6.40 (with ABAP+JAVA). i have created a Public group in concerned ECC 5.0 system. I have already configured SLD, and then i maintain data supplier bridge in SLD and run RZ70 in ECC 5.0 system to load system information.. i can see details in SLD ..
now i am trying to create JCO connections .. here i am unable to create JCO with load balancing option.. i get
com.sap.mw.jco.JCO$Exception: (102) RFC_ERROR_COMMUNICATION: Connect to message server host failed Connect_PM TYPE=B MSHOST=<servername> GROUP=PUBLIC R3NAME=SID MSSERV=sapms<SID> PCS=1 ERROR service 'sapms<SID>' unknown TIME Fri Jun 16 12:41:20 2006 RELEASE 640 COMPONENT NI (network interface) VERSION 37 RC -3 MODULE ninti.c LINE 505 DETAIL NiPGetServByName2: service 'sapms<SID>' not found SYSTEM CALL getservbyname_r COUNTER 1
i am able to create single server JCO, but it fails in load balancing.. is there anything i have missed out in settings...
Thanks and regards,
Sudhir

Thanks, Bogdan Rokosa
I have the same problem,and solved it following the steps provided by Bogdan Rokosa :
you must insert an entry for your R3 system
(like: sapms<SID> 3600/tcp)
in services file
(C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\services) on Java WAS.
I test the Jco successful without restart J2EE Engine.

ISE 1.2 - Multiple NICs/Load Balancing for DHCP Probe

Hello guys
Just prepping an ISE 1.2 patch 8 setup in our organization. I am going for the virtual appliances with multiple NICs. It will be a distributed deployment with 4 x PSNs behind a load balancer and there is no requirement for wireless or guest user at the moment. I've got 2 points I will like to get some guidance on:
Our DC has a dedicated mgmt network and I plan to IP the gig0 interface of the PANs, MNTs and PSNs from this subnet. All device admin, clustering, config replication, etc will be over this interface. However, RADIUS/probe/other user traffic to the ISE PSNs will be over the gig1 interface which will be addressed from another L3 network. Is this a supported configuration in ISE?
I intend to use the DHCP probe as part of device profiling and will ideally like to have just an additional ip helper to add to our switch SVI config. Also, it will appear that WLCs can only be configured for 2 DHCP servers for a given network so another consideration for when we bringing our WLAN in scope. We however use ACE load balancers within our DC and from what I have read, they do not support DHCP load balancing. Are there any workarounds to using the DHCP probe with multiple PSNs without having to add each node as an ip helper/DHCP server on the NADs?
Thanks in advance
Sayre

Hello Sayre-
For Question #1:
Management is restricted to GigabitEthernet 0 and that cannot be changed so you should be good there
You can configure Radius and Profiling to be enabled on other interfaces
Even though you are not using guest services yet, you can dedicate an interface just for that. As a result, you can separate guest traffic completely from your production network
Take a look at this link for more info:
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/ise/1-2/installation_guide/ise_ig/ise_app_c-ports.html
For Question #2
If you are using a Cisco WLC and running code 7.4 and newer you don't need to mess with the IP helper configurations.
The controller can be configured to act as a collector for client profiling and interact with the DHCP thread along with the RADIUS accounting task that is running on the controller. The controller receives a copy of the DHCP request packet sent from the DHCP thread and parses the DHCP packet for two options:
–Option 12—HostName of the client
–Option 60—The Vendor Class Identifier
After this information is gathered from the DHCP_REQUEST packet, a message is formed by the controller with these option fields and is sent to the RADIUS accounting thread, which is in turn transmitted to the ISE in the form of an interim accounting message.
Both DHCP and HTTP profiling settings are located under the "Advanced" configuration tab in the WLC
On the other hand, you can also use Anycast for profiling. You can check out some of Cisco Live's sessions for more info on that. Here is one that is from a couple of years (There are more recent ones that are available as well):
http://www.alcatron.net/Cisco%20Live%202013%20Melbourne/Cisco%20Live%20Content/Security/BRKSEC-3040%20%20Advanced%20ISE%20and%20Secure%20Access%20Deployment.pdf
I hope this helps!

SAP GLM Print Request - Load Balancing of WWI server

Hi GLM Experts,
I am using new GLM + module that generates labels based on Print Requests. I am unable to understand how I can load balance the WWI services when there are multiple label printing requests.
In GLM + we associate a WWI to a Print Station and which can then be associated with a printer. So in the configuration we are tying up a printer a WWI.
Also during label printing, if the scenario uses print request module, then the use need to select a print station and printer. What happens if the WWI related to the print station is down?
For example I have two services in WWI server GENPC1 and GENPC2. I created WWII and WWI2 as two print stations. I will associate my printer PRNWWI to both the print stations WWI1 and WWI2.
During label printing if the user picks and WWI1 and Printer PDNWWI and if the GENPC1 WWI server assocaited with print status WWI1 is busy and down I want WWI GENPC2 to generate the label?
How to setup the above load balancing or fall back? Please let me know.
Thanks
Pugal

Dear Pugal
we are not using GLM + and I am not sure about the technqiue used there to handle load balancing. Regarding general WWI setup I assume you know this Note: EH&amp;S: Availability and performance of WWI and Expert servers
On the top there is a further SAP Note abvailable which might be of interest. This is referenced here:
http://de.scribd.com/doc/191576739/011000358700000861002013-e
May be check OSS note: 1958655; OSS Note 1155294 is more related to normal WWI stuff; but may be check it as well. May be 1934253 might help better
May be this might help.
C.B.
PS: may be check as well: consolut - EHS_MD_140_01 - EH&amp;S-Management-Server einrichten
The load balancing of synchron WWi servers is donein the "RFC" layer, therefore you have no inffluence here, for asynchron WWI servers you can do a lot to manage the WWI load balancing by using "exits" etc.

APEX SSO and Load balancing: Could not determine workspace for application

We had a single HTTP Server serving APEX in a 10.2.0.2 database configured with SSO to be used by the developers. APEX has been registered as a partner application and the login url has been CA Siteminder protected so that the SM_USER details are forwarded in the header for the application to use for authorization. Everything is fine so far.
Now we have added a HTTP Server on another host and have it all set up for APEX and its pointing to the same database. APEX_ADMIN access works as normal, but applications previously using SSO now get the following error after entering the URL.
Expecting p_company or wwv_flow_company cookie to contain security group id of application owner.
Error ERR-7620 Could not determine workspace for application ().
Using HTTP Watch I find that the application is not even trying to redirect to the login page.
What is wrong here?

APEX has been registered as a partner application as described in
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/sso_partner_app.html
In the meantime I found metalink document 368746.1 which describes the cause of this problem. Please read carefully what I wrote, it all works when the the new APEX web server is turned off in the server farm on the load balancer and directed through the original web server. When running regapp.sql the hostname in the listener token was using the virtual hostname. This works fine if the request comes from the original APEX server which proofs that there is nothing wrong with the installation and set up of SSO. When directing the request to the new APEX web server the APEX_ADMIN page still works only existing work spaces using SSO don't seems to work anymore resulting in a error as described in the subject.
As for metalink document 368746.1 naming the causes of this error:
- there are no duplicate entries in WWSEC_ENABLER_CONFIG_INFO$
-LISTENER_TOKEN clearly works for requests coming from the first web server
-theoretically the web server listener port could be changed from 7777, but port 80 needs to be maintained here as production is mimiced as far down as possible.
Is there some cache table which can be cleared? How is it that the flows schema (apex engine) can not find the work space when the request comes from a new web server which can however access the APEX_ADMIN pages.
anyone?

SSO with SAP R/3 with load balancing as backend over the Web AS

Hi,
we have Netweaver 2004 at this time and we have to connect the portal to a BSP application in a load balancing environment.
We set user mapping for the user and set the connection type from SAPLOGONTICKET to UIDPW. This is running for a test environment with only one R/3 system without load balancing.
Does anyone know the setting parameters for a load balancing environment (ok, the message server and...?).
Thank you.
Best regards
Patrizia

Hi all,
run into the same problem. Setting up a mapping with UIDPW in a non load balanced WEB-AS enviroment for BSP or Webdynpro for ABAP works fine. But if I go to set it up in a balanced system I can see the following behavior. The http request is send to the messageserver. This request enclosed my mapped user and password. The messageserver responds with an HTTP 301 wich contains one of my applicationservers, so far so good. The client sends a new request to the mentioned applicationserver but this time without the UIDPW. So the user will not be logged in.
I was wondering if my backend have to issue logonticket too, cause today it only accept tickets from the portal.
Is this is a bug or a feature?
Regards,
Bernd

How to change the OraSSO login link in webcache/load balance

Hi
we have 10gAsR1 installed as a Portal instance. We have 6-server
load balancer => webcache as loadbalancer (listening port 80)
Wb ch1 and wb ch2 => webcache (listening port 7777)
portal1 and portal2 => Portal listening 7778
infra =>Infrastruture with repository Portal/Oracle SSO (listening 7777)
This set up is working fine for our intranet setup, now we need to open this for couple of external clients. Well initially we need to open on the load balancer server on port 80 for external team to access, it works fine when we make it publc access.
Now when we need to make it SSO (siteminder) enables, when users click on login link it first goes oracle sso then it internally redirects the page to site minder sso.
Well, I have noted that the sso server details are mentioned in global setting sso/oid details. Since we need to open this for external client we have to add a DNS entry for this so that we can allow its access over firewall..
Now I have made DNS name change at my infrserver level, now I need to update the change at the load balancer server (where wheb chache is running).
Any one know how to chang the URL at load balancer.
I am struck at this point please suggest how should i proceed..
Thanks,
