LSN64 in a cluster setup

Large scale NAT64 configurations are supported on a NetScaler cluster setup.

A NetScaler cluster is a group of NetScaler appliances that are configured and managed as a single system. A NetScaler cluster provides scalability and availability. Each NetScaler appliance in a cluster setup acts as an independent LSN entity and is managed as a single system.

The LSN configuration in a cluster setup is same as in a standalone appliance except for a specific pool of LSN IP addresses are owned by only one node at a time. In other words, an LSN IP pool entity is configured as a spotted entity in a particular node. All the nodes of a cluster setup can have a specific LSN IP pool entity. To make sure that the packets related to an LSN session are received on the same cluster node that performed the NAT operation, policy based backplane (PBS) steering is configured. PBS steers the received related packets of an LSN session to the same cluster node.

Sample configuration:

add lsn client LSN-NAT64-CLIENT-1

Done

bind lsn client LSN-NAT64-CLIENT-1 -network6 2001:DB8:5001::/96

Done

add lsn pool LSN-NAT64-POOL-1

Done

bind lsn pool LSN-NAT64-POOL-1 -ownerNode 1  203.0.113.61 - 203.0.113.70

Done

bind lsn pool LSN-NAT64-POOL-1 -ownerNode 2  203.0.113.101 - 203.0.113.110

Done

add lsn ip6profile LSN-NAT64-PROFILE-1 -type NAT64 -natprefix 2001:DB8:300::/96

Done

add lsn group LSN-NAT64-GROUP-1 -clientname LSN-NAT64-CLIENT-1  -ip6profile LSN-NAT64-PROFILE-1

Done

bind lsn group LSN-NAT64-GROUP-1 -poolname LSN-NAT64-POOL-1

Done

add ns acl6 NAT64-DFD ALLOW -srcIPv6 = 2001:DB8:5001:: -type DFD -dfdhash SIP -dfdprefix 64

Done

apply ns acls6 -type DFD
