If DirectAccess is configured to use the default settings for the Network Connectivity Assistant, it will be necessary to configure an additional Virtual Service on the LoadMaster for this resource. To do this, follow the steps below in the LoadMaster WUI:

  1. In the main menu, expand Virtual Services and click Add New.

  2. In the Virtual Address text box, enter the IPv4 address that was originally assigned to the internal network interface of the first DirectAccess server when load balancing was initially configured.
    Note: This is the same IPv4 address that the hostname directaccess-webprobehost resolves to in internal DNS.
  3. Provide a Service Name (optional).
  4. Click Add this Virtual Service when finished.
  5. Configure the settings as recommended in the following table:
