Typical Multi-Instance Deployment

The following example includes three container instances in routed firewall mode. They include the following interfaces:

  • Management—All instances and the chassis use the dedicated Management interface. Within each instance (and the chassis), the interface uses a unique IP address on the same management network.

  • Inside—Each instance uses a subinterface on Port-Channel1 (data type). This EtherChannel includes two 10 Gigibit Ethernet interfaces. Each subinterface is on a separate network.

  • Outside—All instances use the Port-Channel2 interface (data-sharing type). This EtherChannel includes two 10 Gigibit Ethernet interfaces. Within each application, the interface uses a unique IP address on the same outside network.

  • Failover—Each instance uses a subinterface on Port-Channel3 (data type). This EtherChannel includes two 10 Gigibit Ethernet interfaces. Each subinterface is on a separate network.
