Adding and Modifying Servers using the CLI
Adding Servers
Perform this procedure once for each real server that you want to add to Equalizer.
Enter the following:
eqcli > server [ server name ] proto tcp ip xxx.xxx.x.x port xx
where:
proto
- is the server protocol
ip
- is the dotted decimal IP address of the server. This is the address Equalizer
uses to communicate with the server.
port
- is the numeric port number on the Equalizer to be used for traffic between
Equalizer and the server. The default is port 80. (Note that in Layer 7 HTTPS clusters,
the server port should be set to something other than 443 since Equalizer
communicates with servers in an HTTPS cluster via HTTP.) For L4 UDP and L4 TCP
protocol clusters, a cluster
port range can be defined. These are the ports on the
Equalizer to be used to send traffic to the server pool in the cluster. Port ranges allow
Equalizer users to create a single cluster to control the traffic for multiple, contiguous
ports. The
Port defined for a server in the cluster for which a port range is defined
indicates the port on the server that starts the range of ports to be opened.
Note - For servers in Layer 7 HTTPS clusters , set Port to something other than 443, since Equalizer communicates
with the servers via HTTP. In many configurations, it is set to the server Port .
The server agent port , set on the cluster, remains a separate port that is used only for server agent communication.)
