This step-by-step setup of Virtual Services (VSs) leverages the Progress Kemp application template for Progress Application Server for OpenEdge (PASOE).

Note: Progress Application Server for OpenEdge (PASOE) can be published with different configuration options dependent on the customer requirements. In many cases if anonymous access or basic authentication is used for PASOE, using Source IP Persistence is supported. However, if Forms Based Authentication is leveraged for PASOE, Active Cookie Persistence is recommended.
Note: The PASOE template is using HTTP/HTTPS health checking along with the default PASOE default TCP port numbers. If enabled on the PASOE environment, OpenEdge Ping can be leveraged to provide more advanced health checking. This advanced health checking will be determined on how OpenEdge Ping is configured within PASOE environment.

The table in each section outlines the settings configured by the application template. You can use this information to manually configure Virtual Services or use the LoadMaster Application Programming Interface (API) and automation tools.

Note: This document assumes an SSL/TLS certificate has already been installed on the LoadMaster. For more information on adding SSL/TLS Certificates reference the SSL Accelerated Services, Feature Description.
