I am going to make a few assumptions here based on your request
4003 4003 4003
6509 6509
PIX
WWW
1) Dont run any kind of routing at the core layer.... leave that job for the
distribution layer
2) Now since there is no L3 routing taking place at the core, it means that
there are going to be 2 subnets from the distribution switches to the core
switches. All the links to the first 6509 will be on one VLAN and all the
wires going to the 2nd switch will belong to the second VLAN.
3) Get a Pix with 3 interfaces. Use 1 as an external interface (to www), and
use the other two as internal interfaces (one going to each of the 2 VLAN's
the 4003's) are connected to.
With the above setup your traffic will be load balanced.... and both subnets
will be in use...
Hope that helps,
