Layer 4 load balancing requires that the MOVEit servers point their default gateway to the load balancer to avoid any asymmetrical routing. In a single LoadMaster deployment this would be the interface IP address of the load balancer and in a HA pair configuration, this would be the shared IP address.

Note: Because all egress traffic will be sent out of the load balancer, Server NAT should be disabled globally to not interfere with required connectivity to other services. This setting should be disabled with caution should there be other workloads published on the same load balancer.

To disable Server NAT (SNAT) globally, follow the steps below:

  1. In the main menu of the LoadMaster User Interface (UI), go to System Configuration > Miscellaneous Options > Network Options.

  2. Deselect the Enable Server NAT check box.
