SSTP communication takes place over TCP port 443. It uses TLS and can be load balanced in much the same way as an ordinary web server, with a few exceptions. It is generally recommended that the LoadMaster not be configured to terminate (offload) TLS, but instead passthrough encrypted connections directly to Real Servers. However, with some additional configuration, TLS offload can be enabled on the LoadMaster to reduce CPU utilization on Real Servers, if required.

This guide contains a section on creating a Virtual Service in the WUI using a template. To configure the Virtual Services using the Application Programming Interface (API), refer to the RESTful API documentation.

The table in each section outlines the API settings and values. You can use this information when using the LoadMaster API and automation tools.
