Installation guide

This panel consists of three entry fields:
Name
A descriptive name for the real server.
Note
This name is not the hostname for the machine, so make it descriptive and easily
identifiable.
Address
The real server's IP address. Since the listening port is already specified for the associated
virtual server, do not add a port number.
Weight
An integer value indicating this host's capacity relative to that of other hosts in the pool. T he
value can be arbitrary, but treat it as a ratio in relation to other real servers in the pool. For more
on server weight, see Section 1.3.2, “Server Weight and Scheduling”.
Warning
Remember to click the ACCEPT button after making any changes in this panel. T o make sure you
do not lose any changes when selecting a new panel.

specify customized scripts to check services requiring dynamically changing data.
