Real Server Changes – Gateway Mode

Gateway mode allows you to route all traffic through the ADC, and this allows traffic originating from the content servers to be routed via the ADC to other networks via the interfaces on the ADC unit. Using the device as a gateway device for content servers should be used when running in multi-interface mode.

How it works

· The client sends a request to the jetNEXUS ALB-X

· A request is received by edgeNEXUS

· Request sent to content servers

· Response sent to edgeNEXUS

· ADC routes the response to the client

Required Content Server Configuration

· Single Arm Mode – one interface is utilized, but the service VIP and the Real Servers must be on different subnets.

· Dual Arm Mode – two interfaces are utilized, but the service VIP and real servers must be on different subnets.

· In each case, Single and Dual Arm, the Real Servers need to configure their default gateway to the ADC interface address on the relevant subnet.
