User manual

The WebMux™ Model 480S, 580SG, and 680PG User Guide – Version 7.0.x

WebMux™ has been tested extensively working with all versions of Windows,

Linux and HP-UX 11.X under this mode. Other OS should also working fine.

CAUTION: Once a new farm is added, the IP address of the farm cannot be changed. To

correct the IP address, the old farm has to be deleted and a new one to be created.

Port:

This is the port number for the farm. If you are choosing one of the known

services below, you do not have to specify anything in this field. However, if the

service you choose is not listed in the list below, you will need to specify a port

number here. For example, for MS Terminal Services, use port number 3389. If

you enabled SSL termination (see last chapter), select port 80 for the farm and

servers in the farm. The WebMux™ will terminate all SSL (on port 443) traffic

and send them to port 80(DO NOT select port 443 if you enabled SSL

termination). For example, if you have five port-80 farms and your WebMux™

only allows one certificate, the WebMux™ will use same certificate for all five

farms.

Service:

This is the service of the new farm. Select a service type to create a farm using

its well-known port. If a port other than a well-known port for TCP or UDP

service is to be used, then choose one of the “Generic” selections, and enter the

port number in the PORT NUMBER box. No port number needed to be specified,

if the service protocol is on the list. The WebMux™ has level 7 protocol checks

for the known ports in the list. For Custom Defined TCP Service (custom health

check), please specify the URL for the CGI code in the setup screen.

CAUTION: Once a farm is created, the port number cannot be changed. Like the IP address,

the old farm must be deleted and a new one created, in order to change farm settings. Please

choose “Generic TCP” and specify port number, if service is not listed below. If multiple ports to

be used, please also select “Generic TCP” and specify port number “0”.
