In the example, the LoadMaster (10.113.0.28) must be connected to the GEO LoadMaster (10.113.0.54). To do this, follow the steps below in the LoadMaster:

  1. In the main menu of the LoadMaster WUI, go to Certificates & Security > Remote Access.
  2. Type a Partner Shared Secret and click Set Secret.
    Note: The Partner Shared Secret must match in all units. When an incoming shared secret does not match the local Partner Shared Secret (including if only one side is providing a shared secret), a warn-level log message is recorded that says Unauthorized Remote Machine connection from <ClientIPAddress> and the connection fails.
    This secret must have a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 127 characters. The following characters are supported:
    • Numeric: 0-9
    • Uppercase alphabetic: A-Z
    • Lowercase alphabetic: a-z
    • Special characters: !"#$%&()*+,-./:;<=>?[\~]^_@`{|}

  3. Type the IP address of the GEO LoadMaster (10.113.0.54 in this case) and click Set GEO LoadMaster access.
