Configuring the WSM using Device Manager

Configuring URL-based SLB

URL-based load balancing configuration requires the following tasks:

• Configuring the WSM for server load balancing. See Configuring virtual server load balancing.
• Enabling DAM for the WSM or configuring a proxy IP address on the client port. See Configuring direct access mode or Configuring a proxy IP address for a port.
  
  

  Note: When URL-based SLB is used in an active/active redundant setup, use a proxy IP address instead of Direct Access Mode (DAM) to enable URL parsing. See Configuring proxy IP addresses.

  
  
• Defining a string for URL load balancing.
• Configuring a real server for URL-based load balancing.
• Enabling URL-based SLB for the server service.
