Refer to the sections below for information on how to configure certain Virtual Service options.

Note: The Subnet Originating Requests (SOR) option is not relevant in the context of IPsec virtual Real Server resources.

Enable Non-Local Real Servers

Real Servers that are cloud-based must be specified/configured as non-local for the Virtual Services that require remote resources. The Enable Non-Local Real Servers option must be enabled globally in order for IPsec tunneling to work.

To enable non-local Real Servers globally, follow the steps below in the LoadMaster WUI:

  1. In the main menu, go to System Configuration > Miscellaneous Options > Network Options.

  2. Select the Enable Non-Local Real Servers check box.

Disable Transparency

Due to the use of non-local Real Servers, the Transparency option must be disabled in the relevant Virtual Services. To disable transparency, follow the steps below:

  1. In the main menu, go to Virtual Services > View/Modify Services.

  2. Click Modify on the relevant Virtual Service.
  3. Expand the Standard Options section.

  4. Remove the tick from the Transparency text box.

Allow Remote Addresses

When adding a Real Server, ensure the Allow Remote Addresses option is enabled.

Note: This option will only be visible when adding a Real Server if Enable Non-Local Real Servers has been enabled and Transparency has been disabled on the relevant Virtual Service. For instructions on how to configure these options, refer to the Enable Non-Local Real Servers and Disable Transparency sections.

To do this, follow the steps below in the LoadMaster WUI:

  1. In the main menu, go to Virtual Services > View/Modify Services.

  2. Click Modify on the relevant Virtual Service.
  3. Expand the Real Servers section.
  4. Click Add New.

  5. Enable the Allow Remote Addresses option.
  6. Fill out the other details as needed.
    Note: We recommend using static IP addresses for the Real Servers on the Azure side.
  7. Click Add This Real Server.
