3 On the Offloading tab, select the Enable Load Balancing check box for load balancing among offloaded
application servers.
4 Select the Enable URL Based Aliasing check box. As a result, some fields become hidden and the Enable
URL Rewriting for self-referenced URLs check box is automatically selected.
5 Select the group you wish to add a portal for from the URL Based Aliasing Group drop down list.
6 If not using a URL Based Aliasing Group, select one of the following from the Scheme drop-down list:

• Secure Web (HTTPS) – access the Web application using HTTPS
• Auto (HTTP/HTTPS) – allows the user to determine the actual scheme used to talk to the
backend server when accessing an offloading portal. Access is still under the control of the access
policy.
When using the Auto scheme, users can type

scheme set to Auto, it's still under the control of the access policy.
CAUTION: It is the Administrator's responsibility to configure the correct scheme used to talk to the
backend server. Auto (HTTP/HTTPS) Scheme can operate only if HTTP access is enabled for the
Virtual Host (under the Virtual Host tab) and authentication is disabled (under the Offloading tab),
which may be insecure. Therefore, you will be prompted to click OK to enable HTTP for Virtual Host.

8 Optionally enter the IPv6 address of the backend host into the Application Server IPv6 Address field.

application.
