After following the implementation steps in the previous section, follow the steps below to test the load-balanced vWorkspace environment:

  1. Open a web browser that is able to reach the load-balanced IP.
  2. Browse to the configured DNS name for the load-balanced service, for example https://Secure.kempdemo.com/access. A web page should be presented with the vWorkspace login page. This indicates that the LoadMaster has redirected the session to a Real Server.

  3. Enter a username and password with permissions to access the vWorkspace environment.
  4. In the LoadMaster WUI, go to Statistics > Real Time Statistics.
  5. Click the Real Servers button.
    Note: This overview shows the active sessions, sessions over the last hour, in addition to how many requests each Real Server handled.

  6. Open another web browser on a different client and perform the first three steps above.

  7. Refresh the LoadMaster statistics page. Notice that, based on the load balancing method we chose, load is spread over both Secure Access Servers (192.168.20.14 and 192.168.20.15).
