SSL/TLS load balancing. In a firewall load balancing virtual server configuration, you can select SSL to load balance only SSL and TLS sessions. The virtual server will load balance SSL and TLS sessions received at the virtual server interface with destination IP address that matches the configured virtual server IP and destination port number that matches the configured virtual server port. Question HTTP host-based load balancing on Fortigate 60E (self.fortinet) submitted 4 months ago by N3tworkN3wb I'm attempting to test this feature on a 60E running 6.0.3 to set up two different public-facing web servers to be able to use the same public IP externally. Apache Tomcat 6.0 Load Balancer HOW-TO. Table of Contents: Using the JK 1.2.x native connector. This supports either HTTP or AJP load balancing. This new version of modproxy is also usable with Apache HTTP Server 2.0, but modproxy will have to be compiled separately using the code from Apache HTTP Server 2.2.

I'm attempting to test this feature on a 60E running 6.0.3 to set up two different public-facing web servers to be able to use the same public IP externally.

I'm able to create the Virtual Server with the following settings in the GUI:

Fortigate Load Balancing Exchange

  • Type: HTTP

  • Interface: any

  • Virtual Server IP: our public IP

  • virtual Server Port: 443

  • Load Balancing Method: HTTP Host

  • Health Check: Just a standard Ping

The Real Servers settings are:

Server1

6.0

  • IP Address: Internal IP of Server1

  • Port: 443

  • Max Connections: 0

  • HTTP Host: server1.ourdomain.com

  • Mode: Active

Fortigate 6.0 Load Balancer Virtual Server Error

Fortigate 5.6 load balancing

Server2

  • IP Address: Internal IP of Server2

  • Port: 443

  • Max Connections: 0

  • HTTP Host: server2.ourdomain.com

  • Mode: Active

Whenever I click OK to submit the settings for this Virtual Server it accepts it and takes me back to the Virtual Servers page. However, it shows the Load Balancing Method is set to Static. When I check the VIP from the CLi it doesn't show the 'ldb-method' is configured and when I attempt to configure it, there isn't an option for 'http-host'.

Any ideas?
