Field Description
Website Alias Enter the name of the virtual server
(
www.yourcompany.com) you created in step 3.
LocalDirector IP
Address
Enter the IP address of the Cisco LocalDirector.
DFP Agent Listen Port Enter the port number on which the cluster’s DFP agent
should listen for incoming LocalDirector connection
requests. This port should be the same port specified in
the LocalDirector
dynamic-feedback as described in
step 5.
Update Frequency Enter the frequency, in seconds, that you want
ClusterCATS to update the LocalDirector with availability
data.
This is typically a value between 5 and 30 seconds. You
can lengthen it up to 120 seconds.
Set a longer time as you add greater numbers of Web
servers to the cluster. This minimizes the overhead of
traffic to the LocalDirector.
HTTP Port Enter the port number on which each cluster member
listens for unsecured HTTP requests. Enter 0 if not
applicable.
