Real Servers

In this section we will define two application servers.

Go to Server Load Balance/Real Server Pool
Click on the Real Server Tab
Click on +Create New

Name: APP-Server1
Server Type: Static
Status: Enable
Type: IP
Address: 10.1.3.4
Save

We will repeat the same steps as above to add the second application server.

Name: APP-Server2
Server Type: Static
Status: Enable
Type: IP
Address: 10.1.3.5
Save

Your final result should look like the image below

In the above example, we used IP addresses to define the real servers. However, we also have additional mechanisms, such as FQDN, to define the real servers. Additionally, the server status can be set to “disabled” to ensure FortiADC will not send traffic to the server, or it can be put in “maintenance mode” to allow current sessions to continue while preventing new sessions from being sent to the server. Please refer to the user guide for additional details.
