vADC Administrator
The vADC Administrator manages Layer 3 and SLB functionality controlling the service and/or
application policies and performance. Configuration and management of physical ADCs are handled
only by the Global Administrator.
The basic tasks and responsibilities of the vADC Administrator include the following:
•
•
Configuring and Maintaining Management Ports, page 409
•
Delegating System Services, page 409
•
Locking and Unlocking Delegated Services, page 410
•
Monitoring and Maintaining vADCs, page 410
•
Configuring vADCs
The vADC is responsible for vADC configuration and management. This is done in the same manner
as a traditional standalone ADC, except for those features and functions which are reserved for the
Global Administrator. For more details on the Global Administrator tasks and responsibilities, see
Global Administrator, page 405
).
The vADC Administrator can override many of the Global Administrator settings for individual
vADCs. For example, under the
/cfg/sys/mmgmt
menu, the vADC Administrator can set different
IP and subnet addresses than were defined by the Global Administrator.
Configuring and Maintaining Management Ports
The Global Administrator is responsible for the initial vADC settings, including user access methods.
Additionally, the Global Administrator can control the access method in which a vADC is accessed,
such as limiting access through SSH and/or HTTPS. These settings can be changed by the vADC
Administrator if the Global Administrator allows for this.
For more details on configuring and maintaining management ports in the vADC environment, see
the section on the
/cfg/sys/mmgmt
menu in the Alteon Application Switch Operating System
Command Reference.
Delegating System Services
When vADCs are first created by the Global Administrator, all vADCs inherit the system services
settings as defined by the Global Administrator. If the Global Administrator has enabled the vADC
Administrator to modify the settings on any of these system services, the vADC Administrator can
change the settings for individual vADCs as required (for example, this is a way to gain privacy and
segregation between vADCs).
There are two options for how a vADC Administrator delegates system services:
•
Use the dedicated services that the vADC Administrator defines.
•
Inherit the dedicated services that the Global Administrator defines. If the Global Administrator
has locked the global system services, the vADC Administrator can only use the services as
defined by the Global Administrator.
The system services that the vADC Administrator can change, if unlocked, include:
•
Syslog server
•
AAA Services
—
RADIUS server
—
TACACS server
•
Time Services (NTP)
•
Timeout for idle CLI sessions
