The steps and diagram below depict a LoadMaster deployment with VMware View Security Servers:

  1. Client establishes SSL connection to the LoadMaster Virtual Service for the VMware View Security Server pool.
  2. The LoadMaster performs SSL decryption and load balances the connection to the most appropriate Security Server. The LoadMaster re-encrypts the connection before sending the traffic to the Security Server.
  3. Authentication, desktop entitlement and desktop selection take place. Then, PCoIP connections are established directly to the selected View Security Server, bypassing the LoadMaster.
