The diagram below depicts how form-based to form-based authentication works:
- The LoadMaster receives the connection from the client.
- The LoadMaster uses the Active Directory to authenticate the user.
- The username and password from the client-side, form-based authentication gets injected into the form POST format to build the POST body. This POST is sent to a specific location. This logs the user in, as if they had logged in using a standard login page.
