Web Server Configuration

Depending on the configuration, IFS Middleware Server can use an external load balancer in front of the HTTP Server(s) to handle requests from clients. In this form you specify the connection details used by the client applications to access the system and additional web server configurations. If no external load balancer is to be used read the first section, otherwise jump to the second section.


More information about how load balancing works can be found here.
