NPS communication takes place over UDP ports 1812 and 1813. Authentication requests on UDP port 1812 and accounting requests on port UDP 1813. Both of these connections must be sent to the same NPS server. Since UDP is connectionless, special configuration is required to ensure that client connections are routed to the same Real Server.

This guide contains a section on creating a Virtual Service in the WUI using a template. To configure the Virtual Services using the Application Programming Interface (API), refer to the RESTful API documentation.

The table in each section outlines the API settings and values. You can use this information when using the LoadMaster API and automation tools.
