The Connection Server is a core component of Omnissa Horizon. This role defines virtual desktop pools, applications, and permissions. The initial Primary Horizon Protocol is load balanced between Connection Servers in the environment. The Secondary Horizon Protocols are connected by directly bypassing the load balancer.

This step-by-step setup of Virtual Services (VSs) leverages the Progress Kemp application template for Horizon 7 and Horizon 8.

The table in each section outlines the settings configured by the application template. You can use this information to manually configure Virtual Services or use the LoadMaster Application Programming Interface (API) and automation tools.

SSL/TLS certificates should be added before creating this Virtual Service. For further information on certificates, refer to the SSL Accelerated Services Feature Description.
