Once the Portal has a correctly configured Shuttle, it is then able to securely communicate with your Kemp.

F5 BIG-IP is a great product, with great features. The flip side of this, however, is that its complexity means it can require specialist skills to successfully deploy and maintain.
In the world of medical imaging, where Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) solutions are vital for the storage and management of critical medical imaging data, high availability, even in smaller-scale environments, is imperative.
Citrix NetScaler is a great product, with great features. The flip side of this, however, is that its complexity means it can require specialist skills to successfully deploy and maintain.
Maintenance, features, or a CVE are all good reasons to upgrade your NetScaler appliance. However, as with any complex task undertaken for the first time, it can get a little confusing.
Perplexed by proxy?! Ruffled by reverse proxy?! We’ve all been there. Honestly, sometimes I think the language we use makes things sound way more complicated than they actually are.
SSL/TLS termination is the most regularly implemented kind of SSL/TLS offload.
If you're thinking about giving mTLS a go, why not try it for yourself by following the steps below.
It can sometimes be useful to make load balancing decisions based on the time and date. This allows you to conditionally refuse or redirect connections based on the time they're received.
Hypervisors such as Hyper-V and VMWare ESXi have the ability to import disk images within their graphical WebGUI. However, Proxmox unfortunately lacks this feature.
One of the most frequent issues I encounter when customers are setting up a loopback adapter on Windows as part of their DR mode deployment is the confusion over which commands to enter.
I thought I would try and cover the basics here by explaining how to create an SSL certificate and the various files that you'll end up with.
After about an hour of searching I finally found two viewers that I can recommend.
Ansible is an open source project sponsored by RedHat, and is the simplest way to automate IT tasks.
Moodle is a great platform for learning, but requires load balancing to facilitate the secure and timely distribution and delivery of that data.
How many times have you looked at the HAProxy report and thought, what on earth is this all about?! What are the busiest times on my Loadbalancer? Which Real Server is busy? How much traffic is going through my VIPs?
With our recent release, you can now use the new Prometheus exporter to export the HAProxy metrics into an existing Prometheus environment.
You don't need me to tell you that Postman is an API platform used for building and using APIs, designed to make your life a whole lot easier!
If you want safe, easy-to-use object storage software then the Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) is it. But why, and how, can you optimize this solution with load balancing?
We're going to have a look at setting up a Layer 7 VIP, which will connect back to our MinIO servers.
Before we can connect to the loadbalancer appliance using SSH, we first need to allow this action through the Appliance Security Options via Local Configuration and then, Security.
Sometimes, we need to pass unusually large HTTP requests through our WAF stack.
A while ago I was asked if it would be possible to apply some general rate limiting in HAProxy and the WAF, in order to help prevent DOS-style attacks on a customer's servers.
Email notifications are a great way of alerting you to any changes or issues within your load balancer or high availability cluster.
It's a fair question, right? Let's take away the strain of SSL terminations from our application servers and let the load balancers deal with it. After all, why would we want to bog down our nifty application with network-level considerations?
