However, if the time since the last packet the ServerIron ADX sent to the cache server and the
cache server’s response increases significantly, or the cache server’s reply never reaches the
ServerIron ADX but instead takes an alternate path to the client, the ServerIron assumes that the
cache server has stopped responding. When this occurs, the ServerIron ADX marks the cache
server FAILED and stops redirecting client queries to the cache server.
You can ensure that cache server replies always pass back through the ServerIron ADX by
configuring Source NAT.
FIGURE 11 Using Source NAT with TCS
In this example, the ServerIron ADX and cache server are connected by a router and are in different
sub-nets. In a topology where the cache server’s response is guaranteed to pass back through the
ServerIron, you may not need to configure Source NAT. However, if the cache server’s reply can
reach the client by a path that does not pass through the ServerIron, you need to configure Source
NAT.
To configure Source NAT:
Enable the Source NAT feature. You can enable the feature at the cache group level for all
cache servers or at the cache server level for individual servers.
Configure a source IP address. A source IP address allows the ServerIron ADX to be a member
of more than one sub-net. If the cache server and ServerIron ADX are in different sub-nets,
configure a source IP address that is in the cache server’s sub-net.
To enable Source NAT globally for all cache servers and configure a source IP address, enter
commands such as the following:
ServerIronADX(config)# server source-ip 10.10.10.5
Cache Server C1
10.10.10.2

Management IP address 141.149.65.10
