Features on the Tools Tab
Load Balancing Integration
The Load Balancing Integration page in the ColdFusion Administrator lets you
configure ColdFusion with the Cisco Local Director. The Cisco Local Director is a
network device with a secure, real-time, embedded operating system that
intelligently load balances IP traffic across multiple servers. You can configure
ColdFusion to provide availability and load information to the Local Director using
the Cisco Dynamic Feedback Protocol (DFP). The Local Director then actively
manages HTTP traffic across the servers based on the load information provided to it
by ColdFusion.
To use Cisco Local Director with ColdFusion, you must configure the Cisco load
balancing device on the Setting Up Load-Balancing Hardware page in the
ColdFusion Administrator. To access this page in the ColdFusion Administrator, click
Tools > Hardware Integration.
To configure ColdFusion to work with Cisco Local Director, you must specify the
DNS name and IP address of the Local Director box and the DFP Port that the
ColdFusion Server uses to communicate with the Local Director box. For more
information about configuring Cisco Local Director with ColdFusion, click Help on
the Setting Up Load Balancing Hardware page.
